Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Designed for guitar modelers and profilers, the ASM-10 combines a 10-inch, two-way active cabinet with 500W of analog bi-amped power. Its tilt-back floor-monitor layout can sit in front of you and direct sound toward you, or it can occupy a standard amplifier position behind you. Rear-panel level, low-cut, and ground-lift controls let you balance volume and frequencies in the setup. A balanced 1/4-inch input and balanced XLR link output handle its listed connections.
