KPA solutions DIY FRFR cabinet

MisterB · November 3, 2015 at 9:03 AM

I know this has been discussed here when it was just announced. But I'm looking for current experiences.

The DIY kit looks quite interesting to me. I'm having a powered Kemper anyways and having a guitar cabinet that is a FRFR speaker sounds awesome....if it sounds awsome

Has anybody build and used this kit together with the Palmer cab?
How does it sound?

I'm currently using a Yamaha DXR-10 but don't like the form factor of it.

I don't get if the palmer cab is included or not.

It´s not. You have to buy the empty Palmer 112 and the Camper Plus kit.

Ok, thank you for the clarification.

Another question: does this kit work well only with the Palmer or it can be doable with smaller 1x12" cabs?
I think to smaller footprint 1x12".

I designed and calculated it with the Palmer. So it works only with the Palmer cab.

If you put the Palmer on its side, it has a smaller footprint.

So...nobody owns it...plays it?
There have to be some users of that solution.
A comparison to other solutions Matrix/Atomic/DXR10 would be great.

We sold a lot. So there must be someone out there. I played it, too. But let someone else talk about.

It's a pity. Nobody out there....

I have the exact same setup, the Palmer cab and the C+ kit. I also own one of the Ambrosi toaster amps.

The reason I didn't speak up is because I haven't used it a single time since I got it (right after it came out, I was in the first ever C+ batch). This is of course nothing to be proud of but an unfortunate set of events. I moved house and the place I live now can in no way support any loud (even bedroom levels) playing so I play through the headphones 100% of the time. I also don't play out (never did because I'm not much of a player) so I can't answer what the aforementioned setup sounds like because I've never properly turned it up. Sorry...
