Description
Designed for acoustic guitarists who also sing, the Vox VX50 50W Practice Amp for Acoustic Guitar is a 50W combo amplifier with two-channel operation. One channel is for your guitar and sports a tone section with bass, middle, and treble controls. The other channel is for your microphone, with an XLR input, controls for bass and treble, and a 15V phantom power switch. A phase switch is on hand to fight feedback. Onboard effects such as reverb, chorus, and a combination of both are provided.
The VX50AG makes use of VOX's Nutube technology, which gives you the warm tone of tubes at the relatively light weight of just over 4kgs. The 8" speaker is a coaxial design, giving you a tweeter for an extended high-frequency response. Utilising a proprietary bass reflex structure, the combo amp achieves a rich and hefty low end.
Conventional instrument and mic inputs are provided, but you'll also find a 3.5mm auxiliary input for media players such as phones, tablets, and more. A 1/4" line output lets you route sound directly to PA systems or recording devices. For silent practice, plug your headphones into the 3.5mm headphone jack. An AC adapter is included.
Key Features:
Lightweight ABS Design
In spite of its high 50W output power, the 9 lb body and compact design ensure ease in transportation. The one-piece ABS chassis ensures high durability and great sound quality.
Nutube Design
Looking more like a chip than a conventional valve, the Nutube is a vacuum tube utilising technology from vacuum fluorescent displays. As with conventional vacuum tubes, the Nutube is constructed with an anode, grid, and filament, and operates as a complete triode tube. Furthermore, it generates the response as well as the same rich harmonic characteristics of conventional vacuum tubes. Its miniature size reduces power consumption over conventional tubes, and its construction is said to offer up to 30,000 hours of continuous operating life.
8" Coaxial Speaker
The two-way coaxial speaker features a powerful 8" speaker and a tweeter. From a rich low range to clear highs, the output is transparent and sonorous, providing excellent imaging to better suit the nuances of acoustic guitar and voice.
Bass Reflex Structure
A proprietary bass reflex structure has been implemented and tuned for the acoustic guitar's inherent properties. The chassis uses ABS polymer for its weight, durability, and acoustical properties. In addition, wood is used for the baffle, achieving excellent resonance.
Per-Channel AEQ
The Instrument channel provides a three-band AEQ with bass, middle, and treble controls. This gives you the means to shape the range of an acoustic guitar's sound, from delicate tones to powerful strokes. The Mic channel provides an independent two-band AEQ with bass and treble. Independent effects are also provided for each channel: the Instrument channel features high-quality chorus, reverb, and chorus+reverb, while the Mic channel offers reverb.
Built-In Limiter
The power amp section has a built-in limiter, so you're ensured of clean and undistorted sound even if the master control is raised too far.
