zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Unleash any amp's true potential with this reactive loadbox, fully equipped with a stereo FX loop, dual line outputs, and GENOME Reload II edition software.
Overview
The Torpedo Reload II. An installment in Two notes' class-leading reactive load solution legacy marking the definitive watershed in contemporary backline control. Featuring twin-channel operation, selectable multi-impedance compatibility and true continuous attenuation, Reload II is their most advanced load box to date. Its mission is simple: unleash the power of any amplifier or line-level source without compromise. Armed with a ground-up rework of defining reactive load for a Celestion Approved Load Response, the match is set to drive any amp's power-stage (rated up-to 200W RMS) to perfection, retaining all the sonic integrity your performance demands. Scalable from a whisper to a full-throttle onslaught, Reload II's ultra-transparent dual-mono 215W (per channel) amplifier/attenuator and paired speaker outputs preserve every facet of your tone. Add a Stereo FX Loop, dual Line outputs and GENOME Reload II Edition (software download) into the mix and Reload II doesn't just enhance your rig, it redefines it.

Celestion Approved Load Response
Feel, Response, Tone - they're the bedrock of any performance, all rooted in a premier load-response that's second-to-none. It's this mantra that's spawned Reload II's all-new reactive load and the final word in next-generation Load Box technology. For starters, a ground-up rework of load design delivers an impedance curve inspired by Celestion's iconic driver line for an industry-first "Celestion Approved Load Response". Fuse this with switchable multi-impedance capability (4-, 8- and 16O), and you're locked to get the best out of every amp in your collection.
Whatever Your Rig, Reload It!
Whether it's a Modeler, Fly-Rig, Amplifier or Amp Sim, Reload II is spec'd to deliver on any mandate. First-up, a multi-impedance Amp In and dual Line inputs make hooking-up anything from a 200W amplifier's power stage to a dual-mono/stereo line level source a snap. Throw twin-channel operation into the mix - complete with independent source selection per channel - and Reload II delivers on any scenario from the bedroom to the mainstage.
Continuous Active Attenuation
It's a fact: dialing in your amp's sweet spot means driving its power stage. The downside? Your driver's going to move a lot of air! The answer's simple: Reload II's twin-channel continuous attenuator fueled by an integrated ultra-transparent power amplifier. In a nutshell, it's everything you need to experience the harmonic saturation, organic feel and dynamic response only a pushed tube amp can yield - all with total control of your partner cab's output.
Maximum Firepower!
From a Line Level source to a low powered amp - or simply a scenario calling for a secondary speaker output - Reload II's twin-channel sonic muscle delivers a mighty 215W per cab output, elevating even the most modest rig to mainstage status!
Loop Command
For apex-level FX integration, look no further than Reload II's Footswitchable Stereo FX Loop. Packing Series/Parallel routing facilities, Return Dry/Wet Mix controls and Dual Mono / A->B Link Modes, it's primed for adding a full-featured Stereo FX loop to your amplifier or even kicking-out a quasi W/D/W configuration using just two cabinets.
Peak Performance
Under the hood, Reload II packs some serious horsepower. For those times when you need to 'punch it', a control arsenal engineered for fuss-free signal optimization guarantees to unleash every iota of power on tap. First-up, a variable AMP IN LEVEL control - and affiliated status indicators - primes any Amplifier to leverage all the might Reload II's dual 215W per-channel power amplifier delivers. Add multi-stage clipping indication into the equation and the match is set for unparalleled authority to elevate any source signal through Reload II's architecture.

"The most useful piece of equipment I’ve ever owned"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I just moved from a space where I could crank a twin reverb at max volume to a smaller apartment with elderly neighbors, and bought this to be able to use all of my tube amps and record in near-silence. I was considering a Captor, but the inflexible impedance configurations made it a no-go with my amps ranging from 4-16 Ohms. I was close to buying an OxBox, but this lovely Reload update was announced and I decided to wait a little more for reviews. Youtubers showcased all of the great features of the Reload, from versatile i/o settings, stereo effects loops, etc. and made me decide to try it. Boy am I glad I trusted them on it. The paired Genome software makes cab emulation easy and sounds incredible! As a comparison, I tried out the V30 1x12 open-back cab sim with an Orange lunchbox amp and also recorded an identical amp with an sm57. The difference was negligible, if not leaning in favor of the Reload/Genome combo. Recording is a breeze now and practicing feels livelier than with modelers. To top it off, the Reload is analog, which allows you to use it without depending on any proprietary software that might end up deprecated down the line. I’m wanting to try the attenuation and stereo effects live, but for now I’m having a blast in my apartment. Thanks Two Notes!
