Welcome to the Family
A question before I buy…
-

I guess a standard guitar cab won't work, because I plan to buy the unpowered version of the KPA Stage.
The Stage is only available as an unpowered version.
Kemper has indicated that it's unlikely there'll ever be a powered model, and I'm not surprised given the form factor.

Welcome! If you like the sound from the Laney turned up then no doubt you'll have no problem with that active cab and the Genelec's at home. To be honest, you'll probably even like the Laney at home with lesser volumes and you'll look cool too
-
And, for clean tones with just a bit of grit, check out the Morgan AC20 rig by rmpacheco on the Rig Exchange.
This is a good place to start to at least hear what it is all about,,Its a proven profile, I use use it EVERY DAY,, stage and studio,,

Welcome

Thanks for all answers and the warm welcome.
In the meantime I could hear the KPA through my Genelec 8020 and I was very surprised about the nice, clear but warm sound. For home use this is a great solution. Even my old and trusty AER Compact 60 would work.
On the other side my plan using the Laney LFR-112 probably won't work. The sound didn't blew me away. But on that front I am not in a hurry. My first gig with the KPA is in some distance.
My GAS is increasing dramatically. It's gonna be an expensive month…

OK, finally I am in. Got my Kemper Stage yesterday and played all night and feeling ! So it's time to introduce myself a bit more after you all gave me a very good start and helped with my pre-purchase questions.
I am a German guy and a pure hobbyist. Music wise three hearts are beating in me: Beatles, Blues and Neil Young. I know this combination is a bit strange but possible but too. much gear. That basically was the reason why I started years ago to search for a modelling amp… and failed miserably. Sound wise it was a disaster for me.
The KPA wasn't an alternative for me because it was a device with too many knobs and I was just scared. Then… about 3 months ago I meet a friend who owns one and he profiled my 5e3 with 6L6 and a Greenback speaker. Kind of a unique sound. Then I made a blind A/B comparison which really surprised me, because I was wrong in all of my guessing . Then Kemper released the Stage and I was sold.
