Pros

Four solid channels and effects. Enough power to gig. Great price.

Cons

At this price, minor criticisms don't hold water.

Verdict

If you’re a metal or heavy rock player looking for a gigging and rehearsal amplifier on a budget, and have decided to go down the head and cabinet route, the HD75 has to be auditioned.
