Its a Winner

I found that this amp compliments my VGA-7 very well. Out output VGA , and also a GR-20/GT-6 to this amp. It adds very clean punch and superb clarity to the synth instruments. Great companion for any COSM type amp simulators. I have never been disappointed with Roland. Only feature this lacks is independent tone pots for each channel. However, we still have a winner.

I play in a restaurant every weekend and this amp is so crystal clear all the sounds of the my Yamaha Tyros sound much better than my old system, It has plenty of power and coverage for the whole restaurant on 5 master volume and 4 individual channel. I also own a Roland KC350 for small gigs. Roland always had great quality. Buy this amp you'll love it!

I purchased the new Roland KC-880 amp for my keyboards, and was very dissapointed. First of all it took me forever to even get it due to backorders and any other excuse I could be given. Then when I got the Item I found one of the out plugs at the rear of the unit had a short in it where you would have to wiggle the jack to get it to even work. But most of all it can not handle aggressive punch. What I mean is the it distorts quickly, it cant handle strong bass lines. and if you use a drum machine or a drum module you might as well forget it. Its only good for a very small applications. With this amplifier you will definitly need a subwoofer speaker. Roland makes a good sub speaker that will work with this unit. If it had a sub out output on it. But you can still make one work. My advise, stick with the KC-550 roland amp. Better bass and handles the punch way better, you can buy 2 KC-550 for the price of 1 KC-880 and go stereo. And you wont regret the sound. This KC-880 could be used as a stage monitor. Dont waste your money, I did.

Awesome Keyboard Amp!!!

Another great product from Roland! Smooth lows and crisp highs. The DSP effects are nice, but they sound a bit subtle to my ears, and maybe that was Roland's intent. My value rating is biased for the deal I got on buying my amp. Overall, everytime I use this amp I love it even more. Be careful, it's a heavy amp.
