IK Multimedia ToneX Cab

Jestem naprawdę zadowolony, jest pare funkcji które w praktyce u mnie nie mają zastosowania, 8 osobnych ustawień czy wgrywanie ir przy pracy z tonex pedal nie koniecznie ma sens, przy wgraniu ir ciezko zapanować nad głośnością poszczególnych ustawień, ale korzystam z 2 ustawień regularnie, na scenie jako indywidualny odsluch i wyjście na FOH rewelacyjne, xlr na FOH a powrót AUX i reguluje poziom miksu i swojej gitary. Naprawdę głośny, da sie nagłośnić mały koncert z backline, ja wymieniłem headrush frfr108 ktory nie przebijał sie kompletnie na próbach i miał brzmienie przebasowione hi-fi w mojej konfiguracji sprzętowej. Każdy frfr ma swoją charakterystykę ja tego porównałem w realu z fender tonemaster 212 na dwóch głośnikach, brzmie kwestia gustu ale obawiałem sie ze jeden głośnik to za mało bo przechodzę z pieca lampowego i paczki 412, a okazuje sie ze jeden głośnik jest wystarczający nie potrzeba 212, lekkie, poręczne, i głośne rozwiazanie

This is a very good frfr cab/amp for modelers/capture devices.
I've had 7 different frfr's before this and this is easily and by far the best, but still not quite my cup of tea. All these have the same inherent 'problem' which is that there is always a certain 'coldness' and a 'stoney hardness' in the tone. I'v played guitar since the 80's and used tube amps (Marshalls and Fenders) all my life and have grown accustomed to the harmonic content and warmth that they have.
Some 9 years ago I needed to go digital (I now use a Quad Cortex, after owning a Helix and a Kemper) for silent stage and have been looking for an frfr for home use/small gigs. While the QC is an absolute beast for authentic guitar tones it still needs to be amplified properly unless you just go direct to mixing console or only do home recording.

The ToneX Cab is a very good unit for amplifying modelers/capture devices and can be VERY loud for band practice and gigs. Very loud! Build quality is great and it's very easy to use. Like I mentioned above this unit also has a certain 'cold hardness' to it which ALL frfr's seem to have, and although the ToneX Cab does have much less of it.... it still has it.

This cab will probably be best suited for those who play metal and hard rock, but not so great if you play blues/jazz/country/cleaner stuff as I do. Playing dynamics do come across nicely but are clearly lacking in harmonic content when comparing to tube amps, and there is also some kind of flatness or '2D' quality to the overall sound just like other frfr's.

To sum up this is the first frfr that does come close to the real thing and you will most likely be very happy with it - unless clean and edge of break up sounds are where you live. I would happily recommend this cab for anyone who plays only distorted/hard rock/metal, but not so much for nuanced/cleaner stuff. This unit goes back as it was not for me. Thumbs up for ToneX, they are really close to perfect and probably their 'next gen' will be what I'm looking for.

I originally set out to buy a Fender Tone Master Deluxe Reverb, but due to Fender’s regional sales restrictions I wasn’t able to. Looking back, I’m actually glad things worked out that way.

Instead, I bought the TONEX Cab, and it’s become the centerpiece of my entire practice setup.

Over the years I’ve owned and played through a variety of amps, including a Marshall digital modelling amp, a Fender GTX100, and a Marshall DSL40CR valve amp (which I absolutely love). The TONEX Cab has become the perfect bridge between those worlds, combining the flexibility of modern digital modelling with the inspiring “amp in the room” feel that keeps me coming back to play.

I first used it with my Hotone Ampero for guitar, then with my basses using the Ampero, and even plugged my basses directly into the TONEX Cab using its built-in IRs. More recently, I paired it with the TONEX Pedal Bass Edition, and it’s a match made in heaven!

I’ve never really enjoyed practicing through studio monitors or headphones. What I’ve always wanted is the feel of a real amp moving air in the room, especially when playing bass. The TONEX Cab delivers exactly that. It doesn’t just reproduce great tones, it reacts and fills the room like a real amp, making digital modelling feel far more natural and inspiring to play. Whether I’m playing guitar or bass, I no longer feel like I’m playing through a monitor—I feel like I’m playing through an amplifier.

Despite its performance, it’s also surprisingly lightweight and compact. Compared to moving my Marshall DSL40CR around the house, it’s effortless to pick up and reposition wherever I want to play. It has become my go-to practice and jam amp simply because it’s so easy to live with.

I also really appreciate all the connectivity options. Whether I’m recording through my audio interface or integrating it with other digital gear, it has all the inputs and outputs I need.

I’ve also used it while jamming with friends at home, and everyone has been genuinely impressed by how natural and full it sounds.

If you’re looking for something that bridges the gap between modern digital modelling and the experience of playing through a real amplifier, I can’t recommend the TONEX Cab highly enough.
