Rated 5 out of 5

Great improvement, highly recommend

The first time I used this amp was speaking to my friends on Discord and the first thing one of my friends said was "Chill with the narrator voice". I'm using it with my Shure SM58 and a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 first gen and the improvement in recording quality is undeniable, not to mention the fact that it looks cool.
