I know there is some topics about this amp but I would like to know if anybody else got a good experience with the
new model Roland Micro Cube RX for harmonica.

I used a Micro Cube for about two years. Then I got the Micro Cube RX, which is even better!

The Cube RX is similar to the regular Cube, but has 4x 4 inch speakers (instead of 1x 5 inch), and is much louder (5 watts instead of 2 watts). Also, the Cube RX has a 3 way equalizer (instead of a single tone control). This provides more tone flexibility and most notably, improved bass response, which is the primary reason I purchased the RX. Otherwise, both Cubes are basically the same.

Both cubes have the delay/reverb, and chorus/flanger controls, and amp modeling. They are the same, except for power, speakers, and bass response.

I use re-chargeable AA batteries. Lasts for 10 hours or more. They also come with an AC adaptor.

A great amp for busking.

Thanks Jaybird, I'm a guitar player and I own a micro cube. I notice that it works well for harp, specialy when using the black panel simulation. I used it with a green bullet in jam with some friends and it sounds nice so I decided to upgrade to the RX for a little more power. Its nice to know that I will also get a better bass response!
I will receive my amp next week. I think it was a good investment for a better portable harp amp compared with the older version.
