Very good for your money!

Music Background: Live Theater/ H.O.W. / Live Band
I have used my XLS 202 in a portable rig for about a year now. The only issue I have is the fans. They are very loud and never stop. But, I did have it in the auditorium for a spoken word show for a f... read more [+]ull week and had no complaints about tech noise. I guess I'm just sensitive... As for power and signal quality, I am extremely happy with this amp! I like it so much I'm saving for the next model up, the XLS 402. Buy this amp! No daisy-chaining XLR hookups tho. Make or buy an XLR splitter for multiple amps. close [-]
