Behringer ACX1800 Ultracoustic Acoustic Guitar Amplifier (180 Watts, 2x8 in.)

Feature:
Lots of features. The equalizer is great and the FBQ works well. I really like the built in effects. The room, hall and concert reverb are very nice and very natural. They enhance the sound without being overdone. The other effects also sound pretty good, though I'm not sure how often one would use flange or phaser on an acoustic instrument. Again, they are noticeable but not overdone. All sorts of jacks for input and output. Loved that they included a foot switch so I don't have to buy one later, and it is metal and well made too.

Quality:
Seems pretty solid and well made. Hefty feel and solid construction. Good protection on the corners. However, the knobs do feel a little cheap and plastic, like they could be knocked off pretty easily if banged around in a trailer or something too much. This is probably the only area where I fault the amp. But I tend to baby my equipment, so no real problem for me.

Value:
Hard to beat. Great sound, great features, lots of wattage, and a reasonable price.

Desirability:
Amp has a nice look. Sort of retro, though the equalizers take away from this. Overall, pretty cool looking.

Sound:
This amp has fantastic sound. It has near perfect acoustic reproduction. I play my Ovation through it, and the sound is warm, full and rich. There is no amp hum or anything. It also does wonders for my voice, which is saying quite a bit. The 180 watts is provides plenty of volume, whether alone or with a band. The stereo amp fills a room from front to back, and is not too loud or soft anywhere. Put it on an amp stand to elevate and tilt it for the best sound.

Ease of Use:
Very simple to operate. The manual is straight forward, and you don't have to memorize all the effects numbers, as they are listed right on the amp. I was able to go from full, natural acoustics to some twangy blue grass in no time at all.

Support:
Only had it a month, so I haven't needed any support yet. However, I did contact Behringer with some pre-sale questions. They responded quickly and were very helpful with my questions.

Overall:
Had this a month now and am very happy. I play with a small country group every now and then, and wanted something for voice and my acoustic without bring a whole PA system along. This fits the bill nicely, and the sound is great. This is my first amp from Behringer, and I would certainly buy from them again.

Feature:
It has no nice clean sound for the guitar and the vocal part has no reverb

Quality:
sturdy construction and easy to move around

Value:
if i can sort the sound out its worth the money if not $200 to much

Desirability:
looks good nice and neat

Sound:
I bought this amp about six months ago from zzounds and i just started to use it this past weekend i thought the sound was pretty bad on the guitar and vocals not sure what to do but i will try playing through it again this weekend and see

Ease of Use:
it may need a lot of tweeking to get a good sound from but i dont want to spend hours twiddling knobs

Support:
there's a long phone call waiting to happen :-(

Overall:
if i can sort the sound issues i will have to look for something new a.s.a.p
