I bought 2 of the KC-550's, linked them in stereo, and I have the sound I have been searching for. They are quite heavy, but the sound is worth the load! I do wish Roland made covers for them. I also use them as a PA system via a small mixing board. I would highly recommend these amps for any venue.

I use this amp along with the Roland KCW1 powered sub-woofer with my Roland TD20 V Drum rig. Sounds really good. Power enough for small to medium venues. Build is very rugged and roadworthy too. It's such a pity that this gear doesn't come with a cover like the old Roland amps. That truly set them above the competition and made sure that the gear was well preserved. A cover can't be all that more expensive to include. Anyway top marks for this product

With 4 line inputs, all self contained, this amp is great for a wide range of uses. Our band, a 10 piece jazz group, uses it for PA and keyboards. A lot of power and very good sound. It is a good monitor for outside gigs or large venues. Roland quality is one of the best.

I just got this amp and used it in our worship service. This amp made a huge difference in the worship music. The low, meds, and highs are awesome. No buzz. I am so pleased with this amp. I highly recommend this amp (KC550).No regrets. I wish I had two so I could chain them.

Sound is outstanding

I use this amp on V-Drum's. I use one on a V-Drum Pro and one on a V-Stage kit. What makes this amp work so well is the full range of sound you get. It covers the high's and the low's with equal quality. It can push everything from the kick to the crash with equal richness. The only time I loose anything (and it isn't much) if I am singing through the amp and have it up 3/4, you get a little drop off on the bottom. That's because I love to use my kick and I sing bass, it's a lot to handle. It does a great job.
