sound on this amp is warm
with good bass and good treble. 
Also has low and high filter

turntables and pops n clicks on 
vinyl. 
Also loudness control which adds 
bass and treble.
There's a good range of input and 
output sockets, two tape loops and 
a pre-amp to power amp bridge
Two sets of speakers are catered for.
And a nicely shielded toroidial 
transformer.
I have been using these amps 
since the 80's and not found any 
other amplifiers from this era and 
price with the warm rich tone this
produces. Really suits music such 
as for punk indie rock mod ska type
bands 70's 80's as well as
todays music
