I like this combo, the amp is set up for series speaker wiring allowing me to hook up two external 8 ohm speakers (they are patched in Parallel to get 4 ohms) and get an 8 ohm total load with the internal 4 ohm speaker. I can plug in my Yamaha TRB5 and get a great sound w/ my trb controls set neutral. The fan is unobtrusive in my rehearsal space. I practice mainly from midnight to dawn and get a nice bottom end bass with out waking my wife in the other end of the house. Guitar Center gave out a $50 coupon just before labor day so it came to $299 plus sales tax. Right now I am using it with no external speakers and sounds fantastic. Only drawback is how will it stand the test of time, I noticed the controls have silver caps which might come off. The tolex doesn't look as durable as the tolex covering my 30 year old Acoustic 126 combo either.
