Apologies if already posted. This looks awesome though. Studio miked sounds from your tube amp at any volume. Expensive ($1299)

NOW YOU CAN:

Play and record your tube amp in its tonal sweet spot — anywhere, at any volume, with full dynamics

ouch!!
 
 
my solution:
 
weber mass lite attenuator, line out to interface
to Redwirez mixIR2 loaded in daw
G12M Greenback IR

mass lite = 196.00
mixIR2 = 49.00
IR=11.99

total cost = 256.99

Cost on the OX is high... but the cab modeling process isn't as static as an IR.
At least that's what they're claiming...
Based on what I've heard, this may be the best sounding (modeled) mic/cab option available.
Would love to have this connected to a Friedman BE-100.     HUGE and the cost to match!
 
 

I'd settle for the Friedman, but can't afford that either<G>!

The BE-100 is large and in charge...
Wish it wasn't $3700
 
I believe Friedman has a 50w model now... 
About $200 less.

Sounds pretty good to me...

Well that's the answer then, isn't it? 50W is at least half as good as 100...

I had my finger on the trigger this afternoon... but backed away to think about it.
 

for that much dough,
i'd buy another amp!!
 

Someone on The Gear Page made a short demo using a Plexi clone into the OX.
Sounded amazingly good... very little work involved... and dead silent when recording.
 
Anyone played a Mesa Triple Crown?
The 50w model is about half the cost of the BE-100.
Had a Dual-Rec not too long ago.  Really didn't care for it's distortion (clean channel was nice).
The dirt sounded kind of "ratty" to me.  Hard to describe in words... just not complex or pleasant sounding distortion.
Tried tweaking it for weeks... 
The BE-100 OD pedal sounded nice thru the clean channel.  
 
The new 5150 with EL34s looks promising (at much lower cost).
I like the original 5150-III... though it has absurd amount of gain on the Red channel.
New models have separate volume for the Green and Blue channels (can now be properly balanced).
