Manufacturer's description

The AS50D is a 50 Watt combo housing 2x8" custom voiced speakers and a single high fidelity soft polymer dome tweeter as used on the AS100D, a combination which allows for clear and detailed sound reproduction across the entire range. This compact and highly portable combo features two channels, each of which has its own independent volume and tone controls. A variety of inputs give the AS50D the ability to handle all-comers: the high impedance input on Channel 1 is perfect for piezo or magnetic pickups. Channel 2 boasts RCA phono inputs plus a balanced phantom powered XLR type input in addition to its jack input, making it the perfect host for voice, instrument or even backing track. The AS50D also contains a high quality digital effects section featuring an adjustable Chorus which is assignable to either or both channels. The studio quality natural sounding digital Reverb and the parallel Effects Loop can be balanced between the two channels. One of the most difficult aspects of amplifying certain acoustic instruments is feedback. Therefore, anti-feedback controls include a

Phase switch and a frequency controllable Notch Filter. Another useful AS50D feature is an internal Limiter which allows you to drive the maximum level from the 50 Watt power stage, yet remain distortion free. Neat and affordable, flexible and portable, the AS50D is ideal for the acoustic musician who wants an amp which is perfectly suited to intimate gigs.
