![]() ![]() But at the end of the day, it's a pair of 3" speakers in a solid state, battery-powered (8 AA's or AC Adapter) mini amp. It also looks significantly more powerful than the THR10, which was a product that benefited greatly from exceeding low expectations, versus being objectively "good". This amp is going to disappoint people with its promises of "30-watt power". SPEAKER SIZE - Physics are still physics. ![]() (NOTE: I was corrected afterwards.the amp is actually $399, not $499) I have to think most consumers would would be better served by a $100 Katana Mini, plus $400 extra dollars to spend on the amp or other gear of their choice. This is over $150 more than I spent on my Katana 100, which is a fully-featured, gig-able hybrid modeling amp, which itself actually scales down to quiet volumes pretty well. I think a good number of those sold (though a ton of them seem to show up in the secondhand market at Guitar Center, etc.), but don't forget how many people wouldn't touch it because it was a $300 practice amp. PRICE POINT & COMPETITION - This looks like a competitor/update on the Yamaha THR10 to me. But at $500, it feels like a doomed product to me. I have little doubt that BOSS/Roland will release something here that sounds good and has a decent U.I. And that means you’ll play more often, improve your skills, and have more fun.I LOVE the Katana amps - own the Katana 100 (12" combo) and the Katana Mini (battery-powered mini amp with 4" speaker). With its premium Katana sound engine and wireless operation, the Katana-Air makes it easy to enjoy rich, dynamic guitar tones-complete with advanced BOSS effects-anytime and anywhere.
