I am not sure which Roland you are talking about. However, I play with a
corporate band and they have a Roland keyboard amp they bring. A few
more features than my Peavey KB-100, including a direct out.

I opted for the Peavey K-100 instead of the KB-300 a few years ago. I
had 2 KB-300 at the high school where I had to teach and had to replaces
tweeters in the first year a couple of times AND a bass speaker.

Mind you some insolent BRAT got into the band room and ran drums and
bass through the stuff, but I thought they were pretty weak to not be
able to take that and were much heavier than the KB-100. We had an old
KB-100 at the same school that went through a flood, fell down steps,
etc... and nothing ever went wrong with this one. That is one of the
reasons I bought one of those.

However, since using this particular Roland amp with the other band,
I kinda wish I had purchased it instead.

Hope this helps you out!

Happy New Year!
