I want both!

I choose to stay for the lunchbox version for now and hoping the poweramp came out on the rack version too rather than having the kpa send back to german to be equipped with the built in poweramp
Initially wanted a rackmount version, but now I've grown accustomed to the space age look. Not sure I could deal with the rackmount, but I almost feel like I need to go rackmount for the integrated power amp. So far the quality of Kemper has been outstanding and I bet this paired amp will be great.
I'll stay with the lunchbox.
I don't love rack units since they eat too much space, thought I understand people who want to integrate the kpa with other rack stuff.
Waiting for the footcontroller, but I'll drop an eye on the upcoming fractal fx floorboard to integrate my kpa.
I'll stay with the toaster.
The rackmount version is going to be so much better for touring acts. I'm definitely going to go that route in the not-too-distant future.
I'm tethered to the toaster but I wonder if this new release will usher in a new era... one involving an Editor/Librarian. Rack gear is sometimes further away... what if someone falls off a chair reaching for a knob and writes an open letter to CK.
Plus, what else is there left for the Kemper team to do next? All done or on their way: Amps, rack, foot massager, and 1.6 delivers proof of concept of a secret chemical weapon trapping all men in a single internet forum thread...
I like the head as it is differnet than what everyone else is using so I'll stick with it.
I'LL STICK WITH THE TOASTER, BUT LIKE THE IDEA OF THE USB ON THE FRONT

If there's ever a reason to build a KPA 2.0, then this is something I would like to see, plus a fix of the thermal problems I experience using these neat (very tiny) USB sticks on my KPA.

I use that tiny USB stick too and don´t have any problems.
Keep the toaster - would have bought the rack if it has some more features (double amp profiling or whatever).
I like the toaster. If I already had a rack setup, it would be, perhaps, different.
I just love the quirkiness of the toaster. I love that it's different. Also I gig with mine and it's so easy to carry, just put it in it's bag and throw it over my shoulder. No rack case to lug around (as I used to have with my old unit - that which shall not be named ). The USB on the front is good, but not a big deal for me personally. That said I would still love the rackmount as a backup.
I definitely think the toaster will sound better

This is what is stunning. Kemper's first venture into the guitar world and they smash long-time and established names in the business! After, the KFC comes out, there won't be much else to look forward to except for FW updates, performance mode, and the editor. Not that I'm complaining, I need to be practicing instead of lurking in this forum anway.

That's what I was hoping for. A Kemper Pro. More dsp. Dual profiles. More i/o options (would love two independent stereo loops, AES, etc)
