The quality of the pots is to do with time, they seem a bit light.
The pedal itself to air its hefty weight and weighs nothing compared to mine a Metal Muff (not the same price and there is the lamp)

UTILIZATION

The configuration is simple, a lot of possibility with the ISF and 3 channels.
The knobs are more effective, means much impact on the final sound.

EDIT: Too bad the EQ is common to both channels.

SOUND QUALITY

The Clean beautifies the natural sound of the amp as long as you rule correctly.
The crunch is just great, from ACDC to Metallica prelude to almost any password.
The distortion is very good with a gain that will be enough to play Metallica's Nightwish, and so on. For large heavy style of Slipknot is missing the gain, but I do not play ...

Basically if you know how to configure the pedal (and your amp!) You get everything you want (except big big big sound).

OVERALL OPINION

Playing in a group of occasions ranging from ACDC to Metallica via Manson and Nightwish, I am completely satisfied with the sound quality. Is the leading of an H & K switchblade or Tonebone Plexitube, the dual is doing very well!

We still regret not having the possility to push the gain as the distX.

EDIT (1 month later):
The sound is always excellent, the gain is definitely more than enough for Metallica type sound.
The ISF is super efficient, it still discovering new sounds the pedal is so versatile, and suddenly difficult to decide what his take ^ ^.
What is unfortunate is that the EQ is common to both channels at once we must compromise between the settings of channel 1 and 2 if you want not to change the setting in the middle of the music.
