i'm very impressed with this amp!
It sounds way bigger than it look, and is actually my 'go-to' amp when i just want to play or practice with a good tone that i can quickly dial in.
Is very dynamic, cranking up the channel 'master' and taming it with the general 'volume' knob give out a very close to real tube amp feel.
Id would love to be able to save presets for each channel, like a EQ and so one, since in stand-alone mode you only have a tone knob. wich to be fair works pretty well.
if you're a beginner-> get this.
if you're a intermediate -> get this.
if you're a veteran.. you guessed it.. -> get this.

Description
THR5A is optimized for use with electric-acoustic and Silent Guitars. Utilising advanced modeling technologies developed by Yamaha, THR5A offers simulations of classic tube condenser and dynamic mics combined with studio-grade effects to create recording-studio tone direct from your guitar and wherever you are.
Developed by a team of guitarists in search of the ultimate tone, THR delivers the sound that you want and the feeling that you need. Effects that enhance and complement your playing combine with room-filling reverbs and delays to push your playing to new levels. And thanks to THR's unique design and focus, stadium-filling volume isn't a pre-requisite - everything about this amp is designed to fit the way you play, right down to the need to keep it quiet sometimes. With tone and feel like this, you'll appreciate the ability to keep playing all night...
CONDENSER / DYNAMIC / TUBE / NYLON / EG CLN
Most of THR's effects feature VCM effects processors. Based on the technology used in Yamaha's professional audio mixers, VCM effects give unsurpassed realism and quality.
VCM effects are capable of capturing subtleties that simple digital simulations cannot even approach, going beyond simple simulation and delivering the truly musical performance that makes classic analog gear invaluable even in today's digital production environment.
THR was developed with Yamaha's award-winning AV division to offer true hi-fi stereo sound and a new experience in guitar amplifiers. The exclusive, specially designed speaker enclosure is optimised to handle both guitar and stereo playback sounds making THR uniquely capable of giving you amazing tone for both your guitar and your track from a compact, portable amp.
THR incorporates Yamaha's new Extended Stereo Technology to create an incredibly wide, spacious audio image. Stereo tracks and studio quality reverb take on a depth unimaginable from such a small enclosure.
THR's two-way power supply lets the unit operate on AC (PSU supplied) or battery power.
THR is bundled with Cubase AI, Steinberg's professional music production application that offers full-fledged recording and editing.
The THR Editor, available for download from http://download.yamaha.com, offers deep editing of amp and effect parameters using a computer. Additional in-depth controls include compressor and noise gate functions.
THR's design provides stereo playback from your smartphone or other device through its AUX jack or direct from your computer via the USB connection.
Tap tempo function to quickly set delay time.The built-in chromatic tuner features accurate, stable tuning and an easy to read display.
THR's Virtual Tube Illumination includes a simulated orange tube glow from the metal speaker grille.
Building on the same core technologies found in Steinberg's Cubase Pro advanced music production system, Cubase AI is a special compact version that provides all the basic tools for recording, editing and mixing everything from the initial idea to the final masterpiece. The perfect entry ticket into the world of computer-based music production, Cubase AI offers powerful, yet easy-to-use software tools for a large range of music styles - exclusive to customers of selected Steinberg and Yamaha hardware products.

Very good
+ Great versatility of sound (modelling and effects)
+ Good sound with good bass
+ Easy to use
+ Well finished
+ Using the USB you can play music through the THR5 and play along at the same time.
- Tuner is a bit slow
- Volume is significantly different in clean and distortion (but only a small criticism).
the mini-amp for my nephew
The small practice amp to take away and that what my nephew does now, attached to its motorbike, he cruises from place to place with music on-board and plug his guitar upon arrival for a gig with friends. The perfect compact amp. I prefer the THR10 for the equaliser but both are comparable.
