Nice looking amp announced at NAMM, not sure exactly of the specs right now, but this looks like a giggable solution for kemper owners to me.

It's on pre-order for about £750 I think.

The Firehawk 1500 already comes with Line 6 HD amp modeling and effects. Not sure how the Kemper would fit into equation. Looks cool anyway.
You can just stick a left and right cable into the monitor connection on the back and it will just be a dumb pa cab/monitor. You can then think of all of the other line6 stuff as 'free' if you want it.
Just bought one- and they sound great to me even without my KPA with just a few tweeks!
... 28.95 kg (63.14 lbs) a little bit heavy
Has anyone else tried one of these? It seems ideal as an FRFR solution and should do a decent job on it's own if you don't fancy taking the kemper to a gig.
They say you can it also use as a HIFI Komponent.
So I think it is a FRFR - System
Ordered mine today. Look forward to test this puppy with my toaster! Hope to find the perfect solution!
BTW I also have a Yamaha DXR for the Kemper so I can write some words about the sound in comparison if you like.......after testing

Would love to hear the comparison! Thanks!
Comparison would be good but also bear in mind the cost, weight and form factor differences. I like the idea of the fire hawk acting as backup too mind:)
Anyone tested this thing with kemper already?
So I picked up the Firehawk 1500 and let me tell you... Its freaking sick! beyond loud,clear and clean. when playing at loud volumes it doesnt clip or buzz or distort the sound at all. ive been playing 5150/engl/6505 profiles on almost full gain with the bass up to get a nice chunk and it sounds just great! I play a lot of VFWs and small venues so i'm going to be using this thing as my main cab just because of its volume capabilities. Anything bigger i can just go DI right to the monitors and use the Firehawk as a stage monitor (i know thats what its really used for but like i said, the pure clean volume you get out of this thing is right up there with a 4x12! I do wish this was a 2x12 just because but im still very happy with it.) i'm using it only as the FRFR just like how Devin townsend said he was using it. i even looked on craigslist today and found someone selling a roadcase 4x12. i got them down to $75!! complete steal! but here is a photo below for now. Will get some legit videos together with the set up soon.
Update: video link and photo (sorry for the terrible quality. Me just messing around.)

And how do you like it?
@Xander it won't let me reply to your wall post. Dude I love it and it sounds amazing with the firehawk. I have not use the monitor that you are speaking of. I would love to try it and see how it sounds. But honestly i'm just sooooo happy with the firehawk 1500 and powered Kemper. So thick and beyond crystal clear. I just played a show tonight and it's a hardcore band. So it usually tube amps 5150's ect and 4x12. I used my Kemper and firehawk and was louder and clearer than everyone else tonihht. When my set was done people were coming up to me like "idk what the hell that is but it sounds amazinggggggg!" Compliments all night.
Sounds to me like i have to go check it out:) Thanks for your answer:)
Wish you could get it without all the bells and whistles. Would knock a few hundred off it probably.

i definitely agree with that. i actually got a steal on it though. craiglist find. $400. dude just wanted to sell quick. oh well.
Nice find indeed! Wouldn't think twice at that price it's €999 from Thomann.
