Killer, gonna give them a good try in a few hours! Thanks a lot for sharing them. I´ll definitly let you know!
Added: Mesa DR pack from stymphalian productions
Added: Earforce Custom 2 Ch. 2
I've been using Keith Merrow's 5150 profiles..sounds super awesome!

These are great indeed. Added to the list!
added: 5150 III and Powerball 2 profiles from Hour of Penance (check out the band btw. insane awesomeness)
How are you guys enjoying the Hour of Penance profiles as compared to favourites such as the SinMix, Stymphalian, and Origin 5150 profiles?

Personally I like them a lot even though I wouldn´t compare them to sinmix, stymphalian or origin - they have kind of a unique sound to it. But I definitly wouldn´t be disappointed if I had to record an album with those!
What are some of your favourite lead profiles, guys? I've been enjoying some of the ENGL rig-exchange stuff in addition to the usual Stymphalian/SinMix/Origin favourites. The Lasse Lammert Soldano profile is also killer.
Pete's new Slayer VH4 sounds sick for leads.
Pretty much every marshall heavy-amp with gain cranked to 10
Agreed on most of this list, at least the ones I've tried. Have you tried Till's Chimera Pack? I'm stuck on a tweaked version of 17B...Huge!
Hannes and Deadpan: do you have any particular profiles from these collections that you love the most?
DrDreas: how have you tweaked Till's Chimera 17B? I'm assuming the recommendation is for general playing and not leads in particular?
I'm getting particularly good results with Jevo's old (free and public) ENGL SE LD profile, in addition to the usual Stymphalian/SinMix/Origin favourites, an ENGL Smolski profile by Thomas Kruck, and a TSL60 by Christoph Kemper.

From the whole collection my personal love goes to Juicy Chunks, Bombed (because I used that on my debut album) and Shotgun blast.
The being said - I love all of those profiles. I could play each one off the list for days and not be bored at all. That says a lot. Gotta check out Jevo´s new 5153 profile pack! Sounds pretty great in the video
Edit: Added GRS metal profiles! (rig exchange)
My favorite profile now and since I got the Kemper is the factory file Dual Boogie Modern.
For me it is not how a profile sounds out of the gate but how well it takes EQ.
My second favorite is Darkglass B7K (1) by Constan Teksuo on the exchange. This is a bass preamp pedal and just takes EQ so well and stays crystal clear for guitar.
Note that I also use external boost pedals. Every now and then I will find a profile that sounds better with the Kemper Green Scream like my latest Tremoverb profiles.
If you want to give some a shot I have two profiles called Brunt of the Triple on the exchange that I really like.

I, for one, will gladly try them!
But I haven't actually heard of many people using an actual boost in the signal chain before the Kemper? You really do this?
I love the R.U. Sirius profile of the JCM 800 + HM2
The Sinmix metal packs are awesome also.

I´ve heard a fair few people say that now. Never really got into that profile though. Gonna add it to the list! Thanks!

I use an od808, od808x, od9pro+ and a Hardwire CM-2 for boosts. They all work perfectly with the Kemper. Od808x is my favorite as it has more output (better for my 8 string).
