Just curious if anyone else is using one

Thanks

Hi Possie,

I really like mine.

Have you ever compared it to a CLR or any other popular cabs?

I've only tried this one and wondering how they compare.

I use a Matrix FR10. I've owned & used both CLRs & DXR10s but the Matrix is the best to my ears for the profiles & music I play.

Wow that's really a nice cab. It's powered and weighs less than my unpowered wedge. I think I may move to 10's and this cab could be a nice option. The 10" speaker would probably be a tighter lows possibly?

My last gig, the wedge sat on the floor and I felt lost in the mix.

Nothing to compare to really except a Behringer 212D which is boomy but really cheap secondhand. Rest is guitar cabs 2x12 2x10 1x12

Matrix Q12 user here. I really like the sound, very impressed.

FR10 here. It's a little 'bright' for my ears but easily tamed with EQ on the way out of the Kemper. The HF driver does have noticeable self noise (hiss) in a quiet environment but that disappears in any kind of rehearsal or live setting and thankfully doesn't get louder as the level is increased. The absence of a cooling fan is appreciated. All in all it's a great, lightweight box of amplification tricks, I'm very happy with it.
