Excellent
Wow, what a great amp.
I was hesitant about buying a hybrid amp and wether it would be too complicated.
This amp is easy to use. The preset amps are brilliant. You can even adjust the levels in the presets with easy.
You can also use it as a traditional amp and dial in your own settings, but with the quality of the tone the preset amps produce, I hardly use it as a regular amp.
As a gutarist who has spent years trying to get a great tone out of amps, I can highly recommend this amp. The tones are great and the amp is easy to use. So much fun.
Update: after 2 months of use, I have finally started to use the Tone Room. I bought a lead from the internet for 15 Euro and it's the best 15 Euro I have spent this year.
Very easy to use. Down load the file from Vox (website) and connect your phone/computer to the amp.
The Tone Room has another 60 preset sounds, often named after the song from a famous band, so it easy to re-create the band's sound. Each preset, is editable.
There are also 21 different effect pedals which you can swop in and out, to create your own sound.
I haven't read many reviews of the Tone Room, which is a shame, as it is a great feature and very easy to use.
Update (4 months)
The more familiar I get with the amp and also the Tone room, the better the amp gets. The Tone Room is superb and easy to use.

Good value for the money
couple of notes:
Delivery - very fast delivery and really well organized package.
Sound - plenty of good quality sounds to choose and experiment from, while creating your own presets.
Power supply - Probably the main downside of this product was power cable. The 220v european power cable was not suited for Vox amplifier power switcher adapter, so I simply wasn't able to power up the amp, since the connectors didn't match. There was another 220v power cable added with right type of connector to the switcher adapter, but since I don't live in UK, didn't have much use of it as well.
ATTENTION!
For this amp to work in EU countries you specifically need EU EUROPEAN 3 Prong 2 Pin AC cable !!!

Great combo
This was my first guitar combo. For myself it sounds great, have few options but it can gave you a great tone. I use it like two years and that was great.

Versatile
This is a versatile combo, with decent sounds and nice effects. Having said this, I do not use it anymore. Has nothing to do when compared to my collection of valve amps (blackstar, bugera, laney, rivera, marshall & ENGL). For a comparable price you get responsiveness with tube amps; the armonics, the warmess of the sound of a tube amp is significantly better. The cleans of a real 6L6 or the distorsion of an EL34 is not comparable with the simulations of VOX VT40

The Vox VT40X, is very easy to use and if you use the USB with computer it's even more easy and you'll see more options to change your tone.
The only thing that I dislike in this amplifier is the fact that you don't have an output to record out.
The sound of the amp is incredbly great and you have to many tools to change your tone, to many pedals and also to many preset sounds, from Vox and from some well-known songs.
The workmanship is amazing, this is the most beautiful amp that I ever saw.
In short, this amplifier is amazing and very good to beginners and advenced guitar players. Also it's very good to play with it in a band!

TALK ABOUT BANG FOR A BUCK!!!
I bought this amp after selling my solid state line6. And the difference is huge. It sounds much more natural thanks to the 12ax7 tube in the preamp, it looks great and it has a lot of features, which I haven't even had the chance to try yet and even more in the app VOX ToneRoom. And to think that this is all for a very good price!
It is slightly noisy but it can be adjusted with the noise filter and I wish the cord wouldn't be the laptop charger kind of thingy, but these are all just little things compared to the pros.
Pros:
Lots of options
Great sound
Great effects and their options
Great looks
Cons:
Slightly noisy

The sound is out of this world !!!
For the price, it sounds amazing! Even beating amps double the money.
It sounds very valve like and looks decent.
I don't like the controls (feel a bit cheap) and the app is just awful...
You can get a decent tonal range with this amp, but imo, the biggest reason to buy it, is that it sounds close to a valve amp for very cheap!
For 215€ , I 100% refommend it to anyone looking for a new practice amp!
Btw, it gets very loud for 40w!

Excellent sounding combo (I recommend)
I was contemplating on whether to get this amp or the Katana - I'm really glad I decided to purchase this one. Moving from H&K TubeMeister to this.
What I really love: excellent sound capabilities (ability to get some tube tones), the interface is very simple and logical, offers a variety of famous amp presets (Vox AC30, Tweed 4x10 etc), it’s quite portable and not very heavy, good price!
Only thing I miss is the effects loop (for pedals) But since you have pedal options on the amp it’s not a huge problem.
Other than that I can't list any cons because I think that this amp is exactly what I was looking for: home practise & playing with a band. (that is why I got 40 watt one)
Thanks!

A VERY GOOD PRACTICE AMP WITH MANY POSSIBILITIES
I got this as my first amp and I must say I am really happy with it. It si very easy to use and it also has over 30 presets wich sound just great. The amp models are very nice modeled . There are lots of options,11 amp models (20 using VOX tone room) and 12 effects( 21 using the VOX TONE ROOM). I was very pleased with the sounds, the clean and also the high gain ones. In the app there are lots of tweaking possibilities and i spent many hours creating beautiful sounds using effects wich are also great. This amp is a lot louder than i expected. This amp can easily be used for small concerts. Overall i am really happy with my Vox VT40X and i would recomennd it for anyone who is looking for a practice amp .

Search no more for home playing, that's it
Apsolutely love this Amp. Once you download the app and conect to Laptop you can have whatever sound you want. For such price this is the real deal. Solid built, nice looking, a bit retro and it can go in line with any top dollars amps, literaly.
