I might want to search for a small PA in the next year to handle the sounds that are produced by the DM10
Sound
The sound is Not quite what i expected from the amp but overall at lower volumes it is very nice
Features
the most useful feature is the 3 band EQ
Ease of Use
Quite literary its plug and play
Quality
very stout and robust but the woofer bottoms out at higher volumes
Value
For the price its a great little amp but for highe Volumes you should go for 2 amps or a PA
Manufacturer Support

"Nice amp"
Verified Customer

Puts out pretty good sound for the size and price. Ipod dock sounds like a nice feature on paper but in reality is pretty inconvenient to use (having to bend down to cue up songs etc) so I still end up connecting the ipod to the LineIn on my module. Really, my only gripe with this amp is that the power switch is located in a LOUSY spot, its halfway down the BACK side. It would have been much more convenient had they just put the dang switch on the front or up top, oh well.

This amplifier will make your kit sound very clean, crisp and plenty loud for your practice space... (I haven't used it in a jam setting yet) I am very happy with the highs and lows that I get from this amp...

Did not expect the sound from this! Exceeded expectations! I put 5 stars on everything, I don't know why it would only let me put 4.5 on ease of use.

This amp is perfect for practice at home, however I think you should purchase two if you plan on using these to gig with. With two you are able to achieve the stereo effect and for the additional power output of 100 watts. I love the sound though and would recommend to anyone looking for a solid made amp.
