I did a workshop in Brooklyn last summer, and one of the people at the workshop had a DA5. Among other things, it has an XLR input for a microphone. He was running a lo-Z mic into that input, with no lo-to-hi-z transformer, and to me it had a nice, big amped blues sound, much better for harp than the Roland MicroCube. I don't think the DA5 would be my choice for loud and clean.
