"Great for clubs."
Feature:
Has casters... not so great pushing it through a parking lot, but it's light enough to pick up.
Quality:
Crate makes some good amplifiers and cabinets. This is one of them.
Value:
I got mine used, for only a couple hundred. Was a pretty good deal for me.
Desirability:
It's all black, and has a black grill, instead of the fabric. I took the 'CRATE' logo off the front, though. Just a couple of screws.
Sound:
It's a full sound. Whatever you give it, it produces. Let's you get loud, with clear bass and high's.
Ease of Use:
It's a cabinet. Plug it in.
Support:
Never had to call about anything for this.
Overall:
It's good, especially if you plan to use it a lot.

"If you're smart, you won't get this!"
Feature:
It isn't heavy, and I move it around a lot for gigs and such, so the light-factor is good, but the handles broke...no biggie, I can still carry it by myself just fine. There aren't any casters, but not that you need any.
Quality:
It's a tiny cab. Short, not too wide at all...the wood is like composite-pressed wood or somethin. Almost like particle board. The speakers really, really are horrible. If anyone says that they sound good, they put their standards LOW. I got this offa my friend because I had heard an XXL through a 5150, and, not thinking that the cab would have a lot to do with it, got this. Stupid me. The XXL is amazing, just not through this. Also, the handles broke off, one while i was carrying it, the other just kinda slowly went. Not meant to be moved/carried/transported.
Value:
Ehhhh...like I said, mediocre at best. The sound really doesn't reproduce well. And by the way, If you want to hear an XXL through a good cab, go to purevolume.com/sixcolorpress. Their guitarist drew has one through a 5150 and it sounds GOOD.
Desirability:
It's a small lil' sucker. And women don't like small amps. Not that I do either, but hey...dangit why do they ask me the "sex appeal" of it!?
Sound:
Okay, so I don't own it, but I'm pretty much permanantly borrowing it offa my friend. The sound of this is mediocre at best. I have the straight version and when you're standin up playin, you know, it doesn't sound bad. Mic it, and ouch. These speakers are horrible. The bottom end isn't terrible, I just crank the low on my amp. If you have a Peavey XXL, or are buying one, DO NOT get this cab, it's really not great at all. I'm savin up for a Peavey 5150 or a Carvin cab.
Overall:
If this broke, or anything, I'd prolly be angry cuz I wouldn't have anything to play through. But yeah, don't get this. Easy as that.
