With its 500 grams for 50 watts, or 10 g / W, the Vox MV series defies everything we thought we knew about guitar amplification. The MV50 Rock handles big British sounds with the talent of a head forty times heavier.

Little head but big chest.
The Korg Group has owned the Vox brand since 1992 and, thanks to this relationship, the venerable British company can take advantage of the innovations of the Japanese giant. Recently, he has designed a new type of lamp at the cutting edge of technology, called the Nutube. This Nutube is right in the center of the MV range of Vox, miniature amps capable of developing impressive powers. Each model of the series has a personality of its own, and the one that interests us here is simply called Rock.

Hard like Rock.
The MV-50 Rock sounds like Marshall hot roddé sounds, with more gain than a vintage Plexi and a sufficiently compressed attack to deal with the Van Halen or Iron Maiden repertoire.. Despite the technological sophistication of the product, Vox has respected its tradition of simplicity in settings, since the MV50 Rock operates its magic from just three buttons: Gain, Tone and Volume. No multiple channels or emulations, we go from Marshall crunch to saturated Marshall and this sobriety is really refreshing to use.

Plug & play has never been so true!
The rear panel hides a switch that controls the amp's overall equalization based on which cabinet you're plugging it into. With a small speaker like the 8 inch BC108 Vox, the Deep function adds bass for better overall support. On a 4 x 12, Flat position will avoid headaches in the face of overdose of bass. And if you do not have a cabinet, there is still a headphone output with speaker simulation! They really planned everything ...

Nutube amps innovate with their innovative technology. The new component has an anode grid filament structure, and works exactly like a triode lamp. Very close to the lamp, it generates the same characteristic harmonic richness. Applying their vacuum fluorescent display technology, Noritake Itron Corp., an affiliate of Noritake Co. Ltd., has designed a component with reduced power consumption, miniaturized and improved quality compared to a conventional tube.

Analog amp head with the revolutionary "Nutube" technology.

Its monstrous, minimal size - the MV50 is the ultimate modern amp.
Revolutionary and inventive amp with its monstrous sound, this little box embeds analog circuits, including Nutube technology for an authentic tube amp sound. In its AC version, it deploys sounds of type top boost, heirs of the legendary crunch sound Vox.

Preamp embeds Nutube technology, the revolutionary new tube.
Nutube is a new lamp that has been admired since its introduction in 2015. The MV50's unique analog preamp design incorporates Nutube for authentic tube amp sound.

The MV50 power amp reproduces the dynamics and feel of a classic tube amp.
The MV50 has a quiet, reliable and efficient Class D power amplifier. Specially designed to interact with the MV50's unique circuitry, it faithfully amplifies the character of the lamp sound generated by the Nutube preamp circuit.

The hp simulator. ideal for direct recording.
As the MV50 also has a line / headphone output, it can be connected directly to a mixer or audio interface, allowing it to be used as a recording amp. The MV50 also has a hp simulation circuit. which accurately reproduces the characteristics of a cabinet and the air it moves.

The perfect combination with the new VOX BC108 and BC112 speakers! The favorite terrain of the MV50 CR: the saturated sounds and a decidedly rock character.
