Marshall DSL1HR

I bought this product to use at home and Jam with the friends. I use it with fender pugilist distortion pedal and boss SD-1 for the moment. First i was going to buy blackstar ht1 mkii head, but i changed my mind since dsl1 has more features in the almost same price and I wanted to have Marshall for the first time and I am really happy.

The amp itself is well built, its beautiful , and good quality material is used obviously. It has FX loop and Emulated output which are really great features for this price point. Sound quality is very nice, you have Marshall valve amp tones in this price.

PROS - FX LOOP
- Emulated output which allow you to plug your headphones or you can directly connect to your audio interface like how i do for the silent practicing in the night. I use focusrite scarlet 2i2 third gen and sound is perfect. Emulated output with headphones also ok, but not as good as audio interface and then headphones. If you have both audio interface and headphones I would recommend to connect first to your interface and connect your headphones to interface too. But if you do not have interface, headphones you can also connect it is not so bad.
- Power reduction to 0.1 watt for home use perfect feature.
- Reverb, i use it with more clean tones and its ok not so bad.
- Footswitch is well built, it has long cable and made from really solid material feels really good.
- Also it has another cable inside which you can connect to your cabin or guitar whatever.
- Light, and handle is well made you can carry easily.

CONS- I did not see so far any of cons, I will give update if i will see.

Overall great product i am happy, I would highly recommend.

Edit - After almost 2.5 years of use, what ı can say is I recommend everyone who owns this amp should get an eq pedal. I was wondering why the OD channel sound not very clear compare to the classic gain channel, and I couldn't find the reason. Classic gain channel with any pedal its fine, but the OD channel. Recently on youtube, I discovered the BOSS GE-7 eq pedal and that is the pedal that brings clarity to the OD channel of this amp. FYI friends! Check out BOSS GE-7 also a lot of things you can do with an eq pedal.

All the best to all of you ! Cheers !

THE Marshall tone in a smallest package - perfect for practice and still more than capable to annoy the neighbors. Don't get fooled by the 1W mark on this baby - this little beast kicks ass!

Great tone, super small size, plenty of tone options.

The only small con is the single 1x16ohm speaker output. Whout be great to have the 1x8ohm for more cabinet options.

Nevertheless it's my favorite amp so far.
