Feature:
even though this amp does not include a footswitch,I cannot fault vox for that. The amp price is so low that you can afford to buy the footswitch separately... c'mon, 25 bucks? you pay that easy going to a movie for 2... no big deal...
Quality:
This amp has a great simple design. I love it.
Value:
not even a question. great value for the money. buy one now!
Desirability:
I definitely wanted this AD50VT amp. I actually first bought the smaller AD30VT (30watts, 10" speaker), and decided it wasn't quite powerful enough for my useage. But I do recommend the AD30 for anyone on a really tight budget, and to use it as an amp modeler in your home studio, using the line out on the back (which mutes the speaker).
Sound:
The sound quality is great. This amp gives you a lot of options soundwise. Different amp tones, with or without effects, loud or soft, clean or distorted... sounds great whether you are playing something like a Les Paul (with humbuckers), or even better, a strat-type with single coil pickups. I also own a Peavey Classic 30, which I love to death, but the Vox gives you the extra sound choices!
Ease of Use:
If you sit down with this amp for a little while, you'll get it. Just switch it to manual mode and tweak the normal knobs if you're intimidated by the program buttons...
Support:
have not had to use it yet... I only hope their service department is as groovy as their amps.
Overall:
This amp is amazing and I am so glad I decided to buy one (thanks to another reviewer here at Zzounds site)

Feature:
The only reason I did not give a ten is I would prefer more channels besides two (or three). I will figure out a good mix for the classic 80's rock that we play but I may soend more for the AD60VTX later...
Quality:
As I said, I am delighted with the warm tube sound. I had a Behringer before and did not like the crisp digital sound. Then I bought a Fender head with a 4x12 cabinet and that got closer but I tired of carting the cabinet around although I am keeping it and will use it for gigs. Plus the Fender is just too darn loud (imagine that!)...
Value:
You definitely get your money's worth (I saved a little more through ebay). I nearly spent the bucks for a Hot Rod Deluxe but liked the fact that you can turn this down and still drive the tube...
Desirability:
I have to agree with others that the chrome metal speaker protector is not that "sexy" but I do like that Vox was thinking about rowdy bar patrons dancing too close to my equipment. I am thinking that they could have made it flat black or brown. In the near future I will probably paint it flat black or brick red to match my Epi Les Paul...
Sound:
This amp has the Tube warmth I hoped to find without spending $500 or more. I was leery since it is touted as being a Hybrid and wondered if the power would be enough live. It is...
Ease of Use:
There is a slight learning curve but nothing a good review of the manual doesn't fix. I mastered the basics in about an hour and quick programmed a starting A & B Channel...
Support:
Have Not Used them...
Overall:
I have to say 10 even though there are only 3 channels max. The price and sound have sold me, this has just became my favorite amp. I will keep my 4x12 (which I have't tried it through yet, I know it will be awesome) but will sell the Fender 100 Watt Head...
