Sweetwater Advice

Jeff Hollman
Roland has long been making the clearest, loudest, and most useful keyboard amps in the industry. It's rare that I sell any other keyboard amp in this price range.
Nick Church
The power to handle your left hand, and the clarity to handle your right hand! This amp is ambidextrous! The flexibilty of the EQ and signal routing only add to the desirability of this amp!

Excellent amp

Not only does this amp work great as a monitor but if you use the stereo inputs it works as a stereo DI box. You\'ll monitor in Mono but the output is stereo. It has a very loud and clean output while... read more [+] not using too much stage room. I place mine on top of my Motion Sound Pro 145 and I couldn\'t be happier with it. close [-]

I had been playing through a 100 watt peavy with 2 12" speakers. What a piece of junk next to the KC-550. This amp has me and the whole band impressed.

Amazing!

I have been using this amp for about 2 years now, and am still very impressed.

I originally bought this amp to use with my Roland V-drums. And the main reason, is that it had a 15" woo... read more [+]fer so I knew it would reproduce the kick drum accurately, whereas the other amps I tried just sounded thin.

Well, it sounded amazing on my V-drums, and really reproduced them very well.

But what is really impressive about this amp is the flexibility. I have used my V-drums with it, my guitar and bass through my PODxt into the KC-550. My iPod sounds amazing through the KC-550. I have actually used it as a standalone DJ rig at a smallish party, and all I had was my iPod, a microphone and my KC-550. It did a great job.

And of course it sounds amazing on keyboards also. I don't have an actual synthesizer, but I have used my Axiom-61 into Reason 3.0 on my PC, and output it into the KC-550 and it sounded really nice.

I have been using it a couple years, and have nothing bad to say about it at all. It continues to impress me. close [-]
