Feature:
Average features like treble boost and what not. The ability to plug in external sound sources (cd plyer, mp3, PC, etc.) is a pretty cool feature and they do it well. The input music or sound is not distorted and is as clear as if it were listened to straight from the source. One thing I wish it did have was an on/off switch to conserve battery life. I think it uses almost none when the volume is at its lowest, but I can't be sure.
Quality:
The product is a classic and Dunlop does it justice. Many people say that the size of the device makes it impractical, but its no bigger than an average novel. When you consider the battery compartment and the space for the input and output jacks (3 total) its really doesn't seem that big at all.
Value:
ZZounds comes through again with a steal of a price. With a list price of $123, they somehow manage to sell it for $70. Not too shabby. I've seen it sold at other sites and stores for anywhere from $80 to 150. No one has it cheaper.
Desirability:
Sex appeal? Not really. But it is a good product that I would buy again if i need to in a few years.
Sound:
Average sound for a headphone amp. I think people expect to buy this and have all kinds of cool effects and distortions, but its just a typical bass sound. If thats all your looking for then its great, if not consider buying an effects pedal or something similar. Produces a good overall sound anyway.
Ease of Use:
Very easy to use, just plug in and play. Only a few buttons and knobs on the front so its hard not to figure out how to use it. For connecting to an external source or inputing from a source, consider buying the Rockman interconnecting kit. It really helps.
Support:
Never had to use support.
Overall:
The product appears to be good quality and looks as though it can take a beating. I expect it to last quite a while. I don't understand the negative reviews this product gets, its a quality item at a good price. For bass there are few alternatives to the Rockman Bass Ace.

Overall:
Well, I read some of the reviews and some have mentioned that it is overpriced; I rated all "5's" acroos the board because you get what you pay for. The original Bass Rockman was sold for ~ $300.00 and ran on 8-AA batteries. (Yes, 8, count them, 8 double AA batteries and how's that for overpriced across the board!) The old rock adapter was not much help in the fact that it was noisy and also expensive; thus; there was no way you could use it live or for recordings.
This unit is good to practice with and you can go mobile with this unit.
