I've been contemplating getting this amp for a long time. My local GC has one in stock but I can get it cheaper online through MF if I use a gift card I received over the holidays. I've read some reviews where people stated that the packaging wasn't very good. This has me concerned given that the amp would have to be shipped and I can't inspect it beforehand. Have any of you purchased this particular amp online? If so, how well was it packaged? Is there anything I should be concerned about to the point where it's better to pay $50 more and get it at my local GC?

I ordered my DA200S from MusiciansFriend and it arrived with no problems whatsoever.
The issue is that the box is so damn heavy that your delivery guy is going to break-his-back carrying it to your door.
I also buy a lot of stuff from Guitar Center and they have always been willing to match my best online deal. The two are sister-companies and I would be surprised if the store manager would let you walk out of Guitar Center without offering you a deal that would be worth-your-while.
...just ask them politely and explain your concern. If the newbie clerk shrugs his shoulders and claims he can't come close to your best deal, politely ask to talk to the store manager.

Yeah I ordered mine online too. I can't remember exactly where I bought it but it arrived pretty quickly and with no issues at all. The amp is also pretty sturdy itself so it should survive the shipping. I say go for it.TD-9 with Master 50 VEX pack.

I've got two of the Roland PM-10's that came with my 30K kit. Could I add the DA200s to this mix or is this something that is stand-alone?
I want to have a concert hall in my study!
Thanks.
