Yep, it's an XM3 with a bass boost switch. Nice sounding amp, good value for money. Not a giant killer, and the Hornet and PRII are much better. But for the money, a good sounding, versitile amp.

Pretty schweet the way the red IEM's go with your iPod.

Now, a red Hornet would really complete the package!
