Overview
Motion Sound KP200S Keyboard Amplifier
The KP-200S provides true stereo amplification for Keyboards, sound modules, and all quality sound sources in a modern rugged single cabinet design.
Modern keyboards, samplers and synthesizers are carefully designed to produce stereo sound. When mixed to mono, these sounds are often compromised and muted. The KP-200S unique angled cabinet front in conjunction with our proprietary 3D-expander circuitry provides a wide stereo field that retains location cues from the sound source. The adjustable expanders spread the stereo sound field beyond the confines of the cabinet reproducing the full sonic capability of your Keyboard(s) and sound sources in true stereo.
Features
Two channels, each with volume, expand, bass, Middle and Treble controls
Two 1/4 in. pairs (left and right) inputs per channel. The KP-200S accepts up to four stereo sound sources.
Two 3D expanders, one per channel. The expanders spread the natural separation of your stereo sound source beyond the confines of the KP-200S cabinet.
XLR microphone input is mixed in mono to channel two's (left and right) EQ and volume controls. All inputs simultaneous and independent operation.
XLR left and right outputs contain the expanded signal, EQ and master volume of all inputs except 'click track'.
Subwoofer output > 100 Hz 18 dB/Oct.
Click track monitor input (no XLR output) can also be used as a stage monitor for other instruments.
Master volume control provides quick global volume… read more adjustment.

I'm going to purchase their sub because the Motif ES has so many deep voices that any amp would need a sub. I like the fact the sub has an indent in the top to nestle this amp into. Plus, I'm so happy with this amp, I'm going to give them another chance.
Sound
Sound is excellent! Clean and adequately loud. Responsive tone controls. Brings out the tonal ranges of the many voices in my Motif ES8. Also, makes my electric guitar and GNX3 sound better than ever before. Kicks ass for guitar!
Features
Fantastic stereo expander feature. Really spreads the stereo sound of the L & R channels. Impressive the way it broadens the stereo effect, which is already better than any other single unit I know of due to the wedge shaped cabinet and over all quality of the amp. Plenty of input-output options. Very versatile unit as a stand alone or with other amps or instruments. Why don't other manufacturers make stereo keyboard/synth amps???
Quality
Like I said, very high quality materials and construction. Solid, great sound, ear-bending stereo sound,(as much or as little as you want), surprisingly light, and a good looking, modest appearence.
Value
Killer amp. Can't go wrong with it. This has been the most rewarding "risk" purchase I ever made on the internet. If they sold in music stores, I'm sure they would sell out faster than they could be restocked.… read more
Manufacturer Support
Fair. I've asked numerous questions of Motion Sound by email. They answer in a few days. Responses are a bit short, kind of cryptic, but in the end I get what I need. These have all been pre-purchase questions. Absolutely no problem with the amp the 6 months I've been using it.
The Wow Factor
It took a few days to adjust to the wedge/angled front. Now that I appreciate how that design maximizes the true stereo channels, I think it looks perfect as is. The deep black and silver/grey grill looked classy yet aggressive from day one.
