Detail 01
Monitor, not an instrument amp
Voiced flat rather than colored. It reproduces your sound instead of adding its own tone.

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A compact Roland monitor amp for keyboards, guitar, and playback sources. For practice rooms, small studios, and personal monitoring rather than filling a room.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Keyboard players who need a clean, uncolored practice amp
- Home studio monitoring where a full monitor pair is overkill
- Rehearsal spaces needing a small personal mix wedge
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Guitarists wanting amp overdrive and character
- Playing over a live drummer or full band
- Anyone needing studio-reference accuracy for mixing decisions
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Handles keyboard and guitar
Full-range design keeps keyboard low end and bright patches intact, where a guitar amp would thin them out.
Detail 03
Balanced voicing
No mid scoop or treble lift, so it works as a reference for what you actually played.
Detail 04
Cube-series compact format
Small enough to carry one-handed and set on a desk or stand near you.
Detail 05
$359.99
Priced above practice combos because you are paying for clean full-range reproduction, not gain stages.

Know before you order
- 01No stand or mounting hardware; plan how you will get it to ear level

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this as a guitar amp?
Yes, but it stays clean. It reproduces your signal rather than adding drive, so bring pedals or a modeler if you want dirt.
02Is it loud enough for a band?
It is built for personal monitoring and small rooms. Against a live drummer you will want it as a wedge for yourself, not as house sound.
03Will it work for a digital piano?
Yes. The full-range monitor voicing is the right match for piano patches, which lose low end and top end through a guitar amp.
04Can I use it for backing tracks?
Yes. It handles playback sources alongside instruments, which is why it lands in practice and rehearsal setups.
