Mine's got no issues with sound quality. I run it in the loop of my amp and it's dead silent. Out front it's hissy as hell, but that's not where I put it. And for some reason, if I put it in front of my little solid state Crate practice amp I don't get noise. So it's not simply a matter of placement, either. Scott > But the Boomerang IS a choice!?
