Re: Behringer V-AMP2
I have one and think its worth every penny of $100. In comparison, a line 6 pod 2.0 is pretty similar but twice the cost. A podxt is quite different and 3x the cost.
If you are trying to make a decision on wether or not to buy a vamp or something else instead, it's really going to depend on what your intended use is.
If you have a tight budget and need something that you can both direct record to a pc and run through an amp or pa, then a vamp2 will do well for both.
If all your looking for is a direct recording to PC device, I would go for a line 6 guitar port or the newer tone port.
If you have the money to spend on what you want, then certainly go for the podxt or even a podxt live. Your paying alot more, but realistically you get alot more also.
To compare a vamp and a pod 2.0, which to me is the more realistic comparison of line6 to a vamp, I would say the vamp will do basically the same thing. I think the pod 2.0 is better built and better layed out than the vamp, but I dont think that is worth double the cost unless you have the money. If you do have the money, then you might as well make the next step up to a podxt anyway.
So, when I was making my decision to purchase, the podxt was just too expensive, the pod 2.0 fell in a gray area that just did not intice me to buy it over the vamp.
