Received this on a Wed afternoon. Dropped it onto my pedalboard and gigged it with a cover band 4 hours on Friday and 4 hours on Sat in the hot sun followed by 2 hours on Sunday with a horn band. Used the IR output into the board which sounded great and was hassle free. For stage volume, I started with a 16 ohm cab which was a bit spongy. Switched to a Suhr 8 ohm 1 X 12 cab which was the perfect balance of punch and feel. I know this is marketed as a metal amp but channel 1 is pure rock and roll. (I like a little hair on my base tone.) I used my volume control to clean up when needed and I goosed it with a Prince of Tone pedal for solos. Delay in the loop and used the on-board reverb. So far I can not recommend this amp enough. It is build like a tank so I expect it to run for years. This is a purely unsolicited review motivated by my outstanding first experiences with this amp!

I bought this not wanting a pedalboard amp but I wanted a Kraken mainly to add to my mini head collection. After some playing around with this thing it has the cleanest 5150/Marshall sound I’ve heard. And I’m speaking of channel 2. The clean channel will go AC/DC and with a boost of your choice is amazing. I was hesitant I don’t need an amp on my pedalboard but saving $600 over the actual amp head makes sense. The Dclass power amp kicks and I am running it into a 1x12 V30 Mesa Boogie cab
