Smarvo amps - good?

[Quasar]

I ran into this brand while looking for a new keyboard amp.

Has anyone tried out Smarvo Keyboard amps before, more specifically, the KS60?

Saw some mixed reviews in the guitar forums.

Thanks!

one man's meat, another man's poison.
one man would eat poison too (if it doesn't kill) when he runs out of meat.

Well put it this way:

Recently I went to see a band play a gig , they were using the gear provided by the venue. The first thing that struck me was the lack of bass in the mix. When I got closer to the stage I could hear a little bit of bass (very little) and it was so awful that it COULD have been in the mix but unable to carve out it's own space. No lows...a bit of mid range with no punch and that was it.

Brand of Bass Amp: Smarvo

Thanks for all your replies!

The smarvo amps actually look quite good and have lots of knobs & features. The price was especially attractive.

But they didn't let me test it.

Now I know why

the tube units sound lacking.

but the solid state 2X12 combo is worthy.

Solid State 2x10... Have one... You need to swap out those awful speakers.

So you made a custom version of the smarvo?

Ah nope... Bought off Mikemann.

Thank God not with my money. What a waste...

The Chorus is fantastic though.
