The most important thing: The sound. Apart from having clean sound (Clean/Crunch-Green-mode), it is typical Marshall and ranges from quaint plexi sounds to modern high-gain. Another sound is a very untypical "american" clean sound, that other britons rarely elicit and sounds really good.
Theory of colours: The Clean/ Crunch channel provides 3 variations - green, orange and red (we know it from other Marshall products, right?). At orange it is already plexi-style, at red it will go already in the crunchy 80's sounds).
In the lead channel it goes on like this - gain in all dimensions - no muffling but the typical biting sound; moreover more tame creamy sound can be conjured at will.
Considering sound parameters, the JVM205, in the combo version with two 12-inch speakers, is located between a compact (also in sound parameters) 1x 12-inch combo and the inevitable 4x 12-inch version. To whom one speaker may sound too hollow and a 4x 12" too brutal, gets the "best of both worlds" here! Good sound with maximum flexibility and a fair price!
