I use Grado SR-225’s with oversized ear pads and it sounds great.

KidAfterDark · Best Acoustic Amp Profiles? KidAfterDark April 6, 2022 at 9:04 PM

I recently purchased a Fender Acoustasonic Telecaster and want a good acoustic guitar amp profile for the Kemper that really shines! Any recommendations?

Did a complete reset on my Kemper Profiler (just in case I messed up some settings from my first Power Kabinet!) and hooked up the new Power Kabinet and carefully went through the output settings and it now sounds amazing! I’m not sure what I had screwed up with the previous Power Kabinet but the difference is night and day! Thanks for all the suggestions and advice to get it set up properly! I’m so glad you all convinced me to patiently give it another shot!

I’m picking up another Kemper Power Kabinet this weekend! I’m going to give it another shot tweaking the output settings. I wish there were screenshots of all 9 output page settings to make it easy!

I thought it was in Kone mode but possibly not. Out of a lack of patience/understanding I listed it on Reverb and it sold immediately, unfortunately. I guess I'll be sticking with headphones for a while until I can read the manual to better understand the output options!

Thanks for your help, everyone!

Bass boost is off. There are so many different settings in the 8 pages of the output menu, some of which are different EQ’s. Kind of baffling for a newbie like me! If I try to EQ the bass down the Kabinet still sounds a little dark and boxy.

Maybe the Power Kabinet just isn’t for me?!?!

Yes, monitor out, and I believe Kone mode but I will double check to be sure!

I recently purchased a Kemper Power Kabinet and find it to be way too bassy & dark sounding as compared to what I hear in my headphones (Grado SR235’s). My Fender Blackface Deluxe & Morgan RCA35 ( Michael Britt) profiles sound nothing like either one, too much bass and very dull through the Power Kabinet. Any suggestions on the Kemper’s settings that may brighten up the Kab and get it closer to the Blackface to es I’m used to?
