«  Loadbox effective and cheap! »

Published on 08/31/12 at 01:41
"Baffle closed" 100watt 8ohm takes up little space and relatively unobtrusive.

UTILIZATION

Well, there is no manual, plug in DI output, it replaces the necessary load to the amp.
I have not managed to remove (both closures are stuck ...) impossible to say what is really in it (not without damage, but for the fans ^ ^). But given the slight hiss coming out and fasteners that are appearing below, it seems that there are two small HP
I use it in a home studio on a Mesa Dual rectify and correct single with Redbox as a DI in general, the volume of the head a little over half (much stronger than snooze '!)

SOUND QUALITY

Regarding the sound, it's not really him that will change the context, it is charging and that's all. So with a good DI and Torpedo PI-101 is that of happiness!
The only fault we can give is that both HP, even if they are locked, produce a sound! (Normal at the same time, huh?!) For those who are worried over it, the sound is very light! With the volume more than half of my DUAL (I would shake the walls with my 4x12) the sound you hear is little more than a phone rings at low volume. But as we hear essentially the treble, some might find it unpleasant.
Personally, I put it in my closet, and this is the best! (Under the desk but it also goes well)

OVERALL OPINION

it will soon be a year since I use it and I must say that I am more than satisfied!
It only takes a little space and cost, including DI, compared to Loadbox (Koch, etc.) and not bad! (About 200 € with redbox OCCAZ) and especially the quality of the sound may change. (A DI better and this is set)
But I think the couple redbox + tonehound very effective and perfect for the PI-101!
