We recommend this product instead:

Your instrument is everything to you. You worked hard to afford your acoustic guitar and pamper it like a lover. Understandably, when it comes to amplifying your acoustic instrument you don't want your sound to be touched -- you want an amp that is totally faithful to your instrument and your music.

Feature:
I set it up in coffee shops, using the attached tilt-back legs, and it always fills the pplace up, even when there are a lot of people talking, coffee machines blowing steam and so forth -- my music cuts through everything, and if I don't turn it down a bit, people at tables can't even talk to one another easily. Heh.
Quality:
By the way, anyone who has tried to use a GUITAR AMPLIFIER for voice amplification can tell you that it never sounds good. But the Ultracoustic ACX1000 makes your voice sound as good as it can possibly be. A real acoustic amp, like this one, is what's needed for both acoustic guitars and VOICES. If I had a Chicago-style (i.e. electric) blues band, I'd get an ACX1000 (or two) for the lead vocals and backup singers.
Value:
Ok, you get the idea. As someone else said, I went out and played all the acoustic amps before I bought the Behringer. If price didn't matter, this is the one i would have bought. It is louder and sweeter and more robust and more versatile than any of the others. And the price? Well, hey -- I was willing to pay less, since I had no choice.
Sound:
I bought the ACX1000 6 months ago, and have been using it heavily from the first day. It is beautiful sounding -- smooth and LOUD (120 watts total on 2 channels) and accurate. Voices sound super on condenser mics, and my electric/acoustic comes through powerfully, with a full, detailed sound, without boominess or muddyness.

Feature:
The chorus and reverb are great! The warmth control really works. The tone controls have good range. The TWO anti-feedback controls nailed my feedback problems without damping the mid tones. The pick attack control is good, but I find that the speakers have so much punch that I don't need it for my acoustic. However, it does help with my electric guitars.
Quality:
Everything works as promised. The amp looks cool too!
Value:
You can't beat the two full channels with pick attack, warmth control, double feedback notches, midi, 99 effects, etc.
Desirability:
Great amp - nice full acoustic sound, all the bells and whistles, looks terrific, and is not expensive!
Sound:
Great sound for acoustics. Just turn up the volume and your acoustic guitar becomes louder, including the harmonics. It is very transparent. I also works well with electric guitars. The only thing keeping this from a 10 is that the warmth control does add some hiss at higher volumes.
Support:
I have only had one question for Behringer so far. They answered my email promptly. I don't know what others are complaining about.
Overall:
I researched many other amps before settling on the Ultracoustic. You can't beat it for the price, features and looks.
