Gets the job done

Mackie has a similar product that does sound better, but this definitely gets the job done. If you need loads of clarity and details from your monitor this won’t do, but I’ve used it for coverband-gigs and it does that job well. I can hear myself and the rest of the music which it’s all about for me. That it’s so compact and easy on the bank account makes it a good purchase!

Dissapointed

A bit disappointed with this item. My main goal (when I bought it) was to use it as personal monitor like this: Mic -> MA5 -> Mixing. If I connect like this the sound is barely audible and sounds like a thin can. It only works reasonable if I connect from the monitor out of the mixer to the input of the MA5 - but this scenario is not ideal because, as a small band, we use a small mixer with just ONE monitor output and, this way, I hear everybody on my monitor which was not what I needed. I bough this so I can hear my voice properly and isolated from the rest.

It's ok, but not for me

It's a nice little amp, but the power is less robust than expected. Also the echo makes it very "karaoke". A simple reverb would suit better. The sound is ok, just not too loud... Of course it is supersmall, which makes it easy to bring along. In my case however it has become my amp in the garden, playing mp3's...
