Feature:
I love all the features on this amp. I’m a new musician so I don’t even understand all the features, but I’m sure that it will come in handy.
Quality:
This amp is very heavy duty. I work with little kids and I had to get an amp that would hold up great if someone fell on it or messed with it. The front is metal, so it’s perfect.
Value:
I know this is a little spendy compared to amps this size, but it is well worth the extra cash.
Sound:
I went in and listened to different amps with my elec/acous fender. It has a Fishman pick-up. This goes so well. It doesn’t compare with anything else that cost less. Don’t try and save money. Get this amp. I play in a small church and it is so awesome.
Ease of Use:
I’m a beginner, but this sounds great and I know great sound when I hear it. I haven’t had any problems trying to use this. I still have some to learn about it.
Overall:
I won’t need to upgrade for a long time if ever.

Feature:
Great features. The mute button lets you change instruments and use the “tuner out” jack to plug in your tuner while the band is making noise. The “Anti-Feedback” dial works great when you’re cracking the accoustic. It takes out the low-rumble feedback.
Value:
Excellent product. Better value than Marshal, Genz Benz, VOX.
Desirability:
The Amp has a standard tilt of about 20 degrees which helps get the sound up over the drums and electric guitars that my accoustic accompanies. You can also use the “kick-stand” to get a 45 degree tilt like a floor monitor. It’s all good.
Sound:
Perfectly Clean Sound and loud. The effects are adequate.
Ease of Use:
It’s easy to use.
Support:
I’ve had it for 6 months and played 8 gigs. No problems.
Overall:
The Loudbox is all you need if you are an accoustic guitar player that is part of a classic rock band or if you’re just picking classical Bach. If you play a big hall, there is a Mix-Out jack that goes right to the mixer board. I’m done. Don’t need anything else.

Feature:
No accessories were included, I WISH it has a foot pedal, Headphone jack, RCA inputs for CD.
Quality:
I like the appearance, style and retro look of the unit.
Value:
Best in it’s pricerange
Desirability:
Oh, it’s def sexy!
Sound:
Sound quality is second to none!
Ease of Use:
Plug & play… it dont get no easier that that!
Support:
Dunno, Hope I never know.
Overall:
I went into my local XX to purchase either the Marshall AS50D, the AS100 or the 125W Crate Telluride, but my sales gent let me try this Acoustasonic Junior. By far it had the best sound & range of all the others within that price range in the store. ( I played a bunch too) I’ve been just givin it a whipping since I brought it home about 4 hrs ago, and guess what… Still works fine! So it’s tough! The FX are awesome, and make the vocals sweet. There’s a couple of things missing I wish it had… (headphone jack,CD input RCA’s) But nothing I cant overcome. Overall I think it’s the best buy in the price range out there.

Feature:
Multi Foot pedal is ok. Effect Knob is not good at all. You turned it, but you don’t feel where it select.
Quality:
Worst quality I have ever experienced. The reason why I purchased this because it has second channel with mic xlr. The second channel gain control is crapped out within couple of months.
Value:
Sound and its volume is ok. Quality and its support is crap. mini mini moni mo~
Sound:
Sound clearity is OK. The Volume is good enough to cover mid size hall.
Ease of Use:
If you are not stupid, you can do it.
Support:
If you are a low tempo guy/gal, probably you can deal with it. However, if you are not, this company has crappy support. I called for warranty repair, they said I have to do it on-line. I did on-line submission for the warranty repair, I have to wait 48 hours, and I am still waiting. Oh, one more thing, if you want to call to resolve to problem, good luck~!. They said they only have two person avavilable for dealing customer warranty, and it looks like they are getting lots of calls for bad product.

Feature:
With most amps that have a foot switch, you pay extra. This one comes included in the price.
Quality:
Behringer has always been on the top of my list. I’ve never been disappointed. They’re right up there with Fender, Marshall and the others.
Desirability:
Acoustic amps are a lot different from other amps. And I noticed the difference right away. But I wouldn’t hesitate to plug my electric guitar into this and wail away.
Sound:
For the money, you can’t beat it. This is the 3rd Behringer amp I’ve owned and I must say…it’s outstanding. The quality constructionv keeps the user in mind. My acoustic electric sounds great using this amp.
Ease of Use:
Simple and straight usage. No gimmicks. Just plug and play and set your sound variations.
