"The 500lb. Gorilla of inexpensive"

Feature:
I use the ultrabass feature on some solos. The shape,deep,bright & eq all work well independently and in concert with each other. The VU meter is a nice feature to have when trying to optimize input/output levels with out clipping.

Quality:
Seems to be very well built, but I base that assumption on the fact that german-made products over the last several years seem to last forever (like a VW Bug..U just can't kill it!!!)

Value:
There is no doubt that to anyone who has playing for a while that Behringer is making it's statement in the market. Today's technology made very affordable.

Desirability:
It's a contemporary looking unit..that's all

Sound:
Unless you have the ears of a dog...very hard to tell the difference between this unit and other amps at two or three times the price.

Support:
I haven't had to contact them about the amp. Their web site is great..very informative, and the owners manual is very easy to follow.

Overall:
I am planning to trade up to the new 450 watt model head. More power usually provides a cleaner/tighter sound...we'll see!!

"The little amp that eventually does what it never thought it could do.. By: Raymond Brown"

Feature:
Shape- awesome for changing around the sound to what YOU want and not wat the head wants.... the foot control for this is very convenient. Deep- DOES WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE. AMAZING LOW END Bright- If you slap, you gotta have it. Ultrabass- Cool if you want to variate your sounds VU meter- good to have to let you know how your doing technically Limit- Tells you if youre exceeding the "LIMIT" but it only comes on if you hit the E string really hard, but it goes off right away.

Quality:
very tough. very rugged. very....................

Value:
great price. only 200 dollars. i got mine for 180 though because i told the site that i bought it from that i found a cheaper price and then they beat it. So i'm happy.

Desirability:
I have been wanting this amp head for the past few months once i read about it and heard about the demand. I was lucky to get mine because of a little secret plot that i was thinking up...AND IT WORKED! cant expose that though. Also it looks really awesome.

Sound:
The sound is definately great. the lows are awesome. just what you would expect from a bass head. The sub harmonics thing is pretty cool. it would be cool for a solo or somethin like that. THe only problem i have with them is that it doesnt pick up my open A note and the D note on my G string that well. It starts the octave effect but then just dies out. but that doesnt rele matter because you can just play the same note somewhere else on the bass and it will work then. Also when the bright feature and the shape feature are on at the same time, there is slight background hiss. but that can be avoided my switching the gain or the shape. The lows on this thing are incredible, and when you thing that thats as low as it gets,,, your wrong. the "deep" effect button brings it down even lower....... and if thats not enough.... the shape feature will make it even lower......... GREAT SOUND

Support:
"red unit to base, red unit to base, we need some support down here!"

Overall:
I am very pleased with this amp head. I havent really been able to put it to its full potential yet because i live in an apartment and our neighbors complain about EVERY single noise they hear. Plus i just got it yesterday so i havent been able to jam with it with my friends
