Not too bad of a little gadget! Not only is this device a small and lightweight amplifier, but it also has a Wide switch activating Korg’s Acoustage technology which enables the speakers in two adjacent positions to project an expansive sound field as the sound comes from two separate speakers. Besides this advantage a variety of instruments as well as a wide range of inputs such as AUX IN and MIC jack are supported and 11 amp types are offered.
Some have gotten mad that they discontinued their beloved Pathfinder 15R. It’s been compared to the Yamaha THR5 (around the same price), so check that out as well.
