Feature:
I was somewhat surprised that this came packaged together, obviously intended to be sold only as a single sale, but didn't include speaker cables. Not that I was short speaker cables but for anyone buying this little rig might have to make a trip to the music store just to try it out. No pedals, nothing fancy and I like that.

Quality:
Very well made. Solid. The stacking corners work. It's size and weight are why I bought this as a practice rig to take somewhere else. My 4 X 10" cabs and Peavey Firebass head or my 2 Crate BT-350 heads I use in tandem in biamp are a load. I do worry my cat might knock it over so I unstack it after using it.

Value:
This is, in my mind, one of the best choices for a combo. The sound and portability make it worth 50% more than it's sold for.

Desirability:
This thing is so cute that even if it didn't work well it's a nice decoration. Especially sitting next to my big stacks. Like their puppy!

Sound:
The 2 10" speakers are housed in very efficient lightweight cabs. The separate cabs help the sound while keeping the weight down by not needing baffles to counter 2 speakers in a single enclosure. The sound projection is noticeably better than a combo with 2 speakers mounted horizontally just off the floor.

Ease of Use:
The input gain stays moderate until about 3/4 of the way up. Then it gets very good without distorting. With the gain at 2/3 and the volume about halfway, my passive Fender P sounded very good considering the size and intent of this rig. The deep in/out actuallu works quite well. The 3 adjustments for bass, mid and treble are wide ranging in sound.

Support:
Don't know & hope I don't need to find out!

Overall:
I only got this for practice & portability. Probably the only combo I'll need at least for a while.

Feature:
The small size,cool appearance,quality construction and clean power are major pluses. I can't find a thing to fault about this little power house. Perfect (10)!!!

Quality:
No flaws, cheap materials, or malfunctions. Looks to be a high quality, well designed piece. Quality control appears to be first rate. Even the cool VU has a convex clear lens instead of a cheaper flat plastic piece. A nice touch and an indication of attention to detail in it's over all design and build.

Value:
I've never seen higher quality or heard better sound for such a small amount of money. Great value!

Desirability:
It's a sexy little amp. Very, very cool.

Sound:
This is the best little practice rig I've ever used. Great tone,volume,looks and construction. A real step up from those under powered, crappy beginer's amps. I couldn't be happier with the Ashdown so far. I live in SLC so I thought a NJ dealer would ship from back east and it would take a week to arrive. My mini-rig came out of Sparks Nevada and was here in just two days! The "Perfect Ten" really lives up to it's name IMO. It is perfect for practice and small gigs. @$200 it just can't be beat. Great little amp and at a great price. Very good service from Zzounds as well.

Ease of Use:
Stack it up, plug it in, set the tone and you are groovin'.

Support:
N/A haven't need them yet.

Overall:
I don't think I will need or want another practice amp for as long as this continues to function. It really fills the bill.

Feature:
plugged it in, and away I went.

Quality:
Seems to be made real well.

Value:
Oh, at the around 200 I paid, im callin' all my bass playin friends, and tellin' them to pick one up.

Desirability:
looks good.... (though the head is a bit large)

Sound:
what a grate little amp.... I was getting a bit tired of hauling my tnt160's around.... especially to a practice... I look around at such things as the Ashdown five-fifteen, and, though it seemed great, I felt as though I would still be hulling something. I figured id try the cl210, especially for the size, and the price. this thing just sounds wonderful, even with my 5 string.... its really clear, and rather punchy, and the 65 w is enough (I certainly hope) for nights in the practice room.... I very neat looking, wonderful sounding, and seemingly well built piece of gear.... glad I added it to my collection.

Ease of Use:
can't be much more simple

Support:
have not..... id have to imagine, being across the big pond, it won't be all that easy... Just hope I don’t have to.

Overall:
bassed (pun intended) on the sound, I will have to give some serious consideration to Ashdown , in the near future.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Feature:
Above average features. Very fundamental piece of gear.

Quality:
Top notch construction.

Value:
For the price, it's the best amp I've played.

Desirability:
Great looks, great sound, not much beef, but not expected at this price.

Sound:
Very nice practice amp. Too small for anything but practicing but wonderful sound if you're going to mic.

Ease of Use:
Can't get much easier to use - plug it in - power it on.

Support:
No need for it, can't say.

Overall:
I needed an amp to practice with, but didn't want an anemic 15 watt amp that is so prevelant. This fits the bill nicely. I can extend the dynamic range of my bass and not break my savings account.
