Re: NAD: and I hate it.

Valvetronix has a good headphone out no? I use (hell, I BOUGHT) my Class 5 for the headphone jack all the time...

I duno man. I watched 'Fight Club' again recently and it's messed with my mind.

Re: NAD: and I hate it.

You're mad because you bought a practice amp that's specifically designed to be used with a computer and you don't want to, and you already have practice amps?

No. You fail at reading comprehension, no wonder your head hurts

Besides that, the amp is not specifically designed to be used with a computer, that ability is a feature, sure, and one I like to have available. But when a basic amp control, like "middle" is not accessible, nor any effect parameters besides tap tempo are accessible without taking all my **** downstairs, and plugging in and booting up, it is a problem, AFAIC.

ErikH Nailed it. I want something for low volumes that sounds decent. When it is time to practice in the evening after the little one is in bed, if my wife is on the computer, I cannot even modify anything on the amp at all. The M1V2 also needs to be nearly as loud as my Class 5 to sound worth a damn...another strike. If I NEED to use headphones, I do have the Class5 option which I mentioned. if the Wife is in bed watching TV (bedroom near my music room) , then having something portable and low volume helps a great deal. I can go into another room, or during nice weather, out on the deck.

I do have a VOX VT15 that is half fried and has been dying a slow death for 3+ years: it turns on and off by itself, makes all kinds of pops and scratchy noises, switches amp models and effects on and off by itself, etc. even after several re-boots.Thus why I am looking for a new similar amp to replace it, though with a MP3 jack.

Is the MP3 jack critical to whether or not you will use the amp? Because it sounds like you could just get another Vox and be happy.

The new version has an MP3 jack,..it is not a deal breaker but as I have no normal stereo system, it makes learning songs/parts easier. I am returning the Mustang tomorrow , as I could not make it on Friday. I will try some other stuff.
