Feature:
Features wise this can't be beaten. You get all your different guitar sounds, plus a built in tuner, plus a vocal channel with effects, plus an input for a cd/mp3 player etc.

Quality:
It's built solidly.

Sound:
The sound is excellent - the amp models are pro quality. The sound is also clear and very loud, for both the guitar and vocal channels. The effects are brilliant.

Ease of Use:
A monkey could figure out how to use this, it's that intuitve.

Overall:
The only downer is the battery life. The manual claims the batteries last up to 15 hours, but for the sort of volume you're going to use on the street, you'll get no more than 3 or 4 hours use even with the absolute best batteries. Roland should take their 15 hours claim away and put in a built in battery that you can recharge overnight, much like the Crate busking amps.

"Best little amp in the world."

Feature:
Came with a/c adapter. Used 6 AA batteries. Controlls are nicely marked and easy to see. It has a tilt to it, facing upward toward the audience. I only wish that the controlls faced the other way so I could see them right side up as it faces away from me. You have to read and adjust the controll, and then turn it toward the audience.

Quality:
Like all Roland Products, this thing is built like a tank. My Micro Cube has been 100 percent reliable and I know this Street Cube will serve me well too.

Value:
I would have paid even more since this is the perfect amp and has the perfect sound.

Desirability:
It is the pefect size and weight. At 5 watts, it sounds like 30 watts.

Sound:
I owned two Mico-cubes by Roland. They were very nice, but I wanted just a little more power for my small club gigs. The Street Cube was perfect. Like the Micro cube, it did not alter the sound of my acoustic flamenco guitar when played on acoustic mode. However, it enhanced the roundness of the sound and made it richer. The two speakers, slighly large ones than the Micro cube, and the 25 per cent increase in power, really made a difference. Running on batteries (I play outside quite a bit) was a plus. It is extremely lightweight and caused no hastle transporting it. I play in a restaurant which requires me to change locations often. Taking this small amp from room to room was a breeze. I do not use a microphone. Instead, I use a stick on Matrix Guitar Tuner Pick-up, model MPU-1, which has a suction cup. I bought an extension cord for it from Radio Shack, since the cord it come with is only about 18 inches long. This little gem cost me only $14 and beats carrying a microphone. I love using this cube with the reverb all the way up, for a very romanitic sound. For my guitar, I set the treble and base controll at about 12 oclock position and the midrange completely off. It produces the sound of my guitar with no added coloring. I love this unit. A dream come true.

Ease of Use:
The sound is everything. Just fantastic.

Support:
I never had a reason to deal with Roland.

Overall:
My search is over. This is my dream amp for what I do.

About This Product!
Description
If you’re a musician who’s on the move, the new Cube Street is for you. Whether you’re running to a rehearsal, lesson, street gig, or any situation that requires portability and versatility, the Cube Street is a battery-powered marvel that’s ready to travel fast. The Cube Street sounds amazing and is capable of high-volume output thanks to dual (or two) digital power amps and a pair of high-performance neodymium speakers. And just wait until you hear the built-in effects and amp models!

Features

Compact, lightweight stereo amplifier with slanted cabinet design

Two high-performance 6.5 in. neodymium speakers

Battery driven (6 x AA, maximum 15-hour continuous use)

Dual-channel architecture with Guitar/Inst and Mic/Line inputs

8 COSM AMPs, 6 digital effects, and chromatic tuner built in

Great Sound to Go
Roland Cube amps are famous for performance that exceeds their physical size, and the Cube Street is no exception. With two highperformance neodymium speakers onboard, this amp sounds incredible, and is capable of high-volume output that defies its physical dimensions. Best of all, it can run for up to 15 hours on just six AA alkaline batteries.

8 Amps Onboard
More than meets the eye, the Cube Street is actually 8 different amps in one via its built-in COSM amp models. From tube-driven blues classics to modern metal stacks, Roland’s COSM technology is world famous for capturing every nuance of the original amps — from the preamp and circuits to the speaker.

Bonus Features
The Cube Street is chock full of extra features to make your gigs easier, including a built-in chromatic tuner and 2 digital effects processors. In addition to the aforementioned COSM amp models, you can choose from six of Roland’s famous effects to enrich your sound.

Portable PA
It’s a guitar amp and mini PA system in one! With its dual-channel architecture and XRL/1/4 in. Microphone input, you can sing and play guitar through one convenient amplifier. There’s even a delay and reverb devoted to the Mic/Line channel.

Choose Your Color
Classic black or fire-engine red? Take your pick. Like the best-selling Micro-Cube, the Cube Street comes in a choice of colors so you can express yourself musically and visually.
