Feature:
The compressor and graphic equalizer are what I use most. It would help to have an auxilary power outlet or 2. If you rack mount an accesory, you have to plug it in separately.

Quality:
I have been using this amp for over a year averaging about 12-20 hours per week performing. Has never skipped a beat.

Value:
This product is reasonably priced. Especially with the versatility it offers, coupled with the power it has.

Desirability:
It was a practical addition after trying out about 5 other brands. Size, versaitility, power. The color black blends in the background. Don't need chrome grills, they clutter up the set.

Sound:
The sound and quality are great. With the controls being so vesatile you can get most any sound you want. I used the rack mount space for a processor. I also added a SWR 15B cabinet for larger venues for a bit more low belly. If you need more than that you can use the XLR out to a sound board.

Support:
Haven't had to call them. I added a Fostex DE-10 processor to help with a bit of echo in small rooms for fill.

Overall:
I had used Sunn amps for over 30 years. Making this change was a significant event for me. Took me months to make the choice. I doubt I will ever need anything else (except a roadie when I get really old)

Feature:
The controls are easy to use and understand and overall the amp is well designed

Quality:
This buzz/rattle is inexcusable.

Value:
If you get one that doesn't make an irritating buzz which is audible over the sound of your entire band...this amp is a good buy.

Desirability:
I shopped on line many months, read many reviews, and considered a lot of amps before deciding on the SWR 2x10c combo (could never find one in the local music stores to try out). I'm very disappointed to have this problem, my second choice will cost over a $1000.00, I may go with my third choice in the same price range.

Sound:
SWR Workingman 2x10c (combo). This amplifier is a week old, on my first gig I played at a moderate volume level and could clearly hear some sort of rattle/buzz. When I got home I discovered the buzz was coming from the power amp, vicinity of the cooling fins. I messed around with the amp for several hours (tightening screws, playing with different EQ settings), the buzz is there to stay. I'm sending this thing back, I won't give this product a second chance.

Support:
N/A No contact with SWR.

Overall:
Very disappointed and now I have to start the shopping process all over again.

Overall:
I have owned SWR products in the past & have made a sincere effort to like them. Unfortunately they are junk. Most notably I purchased an SWR head for about $800 a while back & after about $700 in repairs it still did not work properly & the people at SWR were unapologetic & of no assistance.I suggest you find any other amp, unless you can afford to own three SWR devices. One to use till it (inevitably breaks) & two to keep in the shop...
