i guess they're hoping people will spend £600 on something that will do several jobs poorly, rather than spend a few hundred quid more on separate items that will do the job properly.

anyone wanting decent recording quality will get a proper audio interface.
anyone wanting a decent amp / cab will buy something not made by ashdown.
anyone wanting a decent wireless system will buy a decent wireless system.

Comically sweeping statements like that make me less inclined to give serious consideration to the rest of your comment.

Whatever it's for it's darned ugly that's for sure.

I am with Cosmo on this!
I like the look of it. And I have an Ashdown combo I am happy with :)
Now, it's probably not going to be the best at all the things it does (or any) but it's pretty convenient no? Wireless, 2 inputs + audio streaming in + USB out with no latency? And agree, bluetooth is probably completely wrong for high quality audio. But if you want better quality you can still plug in.
I wouldn't pay £600. But I am happy to get it off someone's hands for £250 when they've finished with it :lol:

As an Ashdown junkie, I liked the look of this during the run-up to Namm... until I saw the pricetag :-/

Something like a MiBass and a Mi10 cab could give me everything that I want from something like this (small, interface friendly etc.) for a similar sort of price if not less.

My $0.02. Sorry Ashdown!!
