"Absolutley the best keyboard amp on the market to be in one box."
Feature:
I love everything about it except Motionsound failed to put an XLR DI output on the speaker output. It does however have stereo output xlr on internal microphones on the rotating horn. Why they didn't think of the bottom end, or the stereo channels needing a balanced Direct output I can't imagine. For this short coming, I give it an 8 rather than a perfect 10.
Quality:
I get constant completments on the sound of this amplifier. I can even feed a cheap organ through the Leslie simulating channel and it sounds like something from a 60's rock album. Other keyboard players and musicians all bragg on this amp. I wouldn't consider any other keyboard amp. This amplifier is a life time investment for me. This amplifier is the understated, unknown best out there.
Value:
Expensive period, but I wouldn't take any other amp so I guess it's worth it.
Desirability:
It is a nice sized amp. I set the amp on top of the flight case when I play. It puts it a the perfect height behind me. I turn it lound enough to monitor myself and let the sound man take it from there. The soundman is always bragging on the "source" of sound I'm sending him.
Sound:
This is hands down the very best keyboard amplifier out there today. The Leslie sound is the closest thing to a real Leslie I've heard. The stereo channels match or excede any other keyboard amp out there, plus it is a stereo amplifier.
Ease of Use:
Any dummy can operate this amp and get a great sound.
Support:
I've had to call them as I had some transit damage, the Motionsound folks were quick to respond with support.
Overall:
This amplifier is the cat's meow for the keyboard player who wants a great keyboard amp AND a Leslie sound that is very close to a real Leslie.

"The best unleslie you can buy,"
Feature:
Fast, slow & stop pedal, wow, lack of a light on pedal for fast/ slow/stop always has me checking to see what rotor is doing, light on amp hard to see from anywhere.
Quality:
I got an early model, black finish on cabinet was garbage, ended up rhinolining it myself. Pots for mic controls on rotor fell in, not a quality piece of work. Ended up buying a amp case for it, which I highly recommend anyone that buys this does.
Value:
Overpriced because it has a rotor, like a leslie, better watch it guys, those stereo sims are sounding pretty good, and I love the weight ratio aspect.
Desirability:
Always get comments from sound men who want to know what the hell it is
Sound:
OK Leslie sound, piano & synth channel seems to get lost, not great bottom end, I use a pro 3 to supplement the rotor and a monitor amp for piano. This is not a leslie, but it could sound a lot closer with a little more effort by Motion Sound. Subwoofer output, mixed XLR line out jacks, better mikes and control of same for horn, those cheap pots are a waste of time. For the price paid, should be more top of the line.
Ease of Use:
Good tube overdrive, but again, low light situations make it very hard to decipher panel settings, not pleased with chorus sound
Support:
Called Motion sound about problems with cabinet wear and pots, said pretty much "too effin bad, pal"
Overall:
I'm going to use it for a while, not a recording piece of gear definitely, small venue OK.
