Thing is, it's not the Profiling that makes the KPA sound so good, it's everything else within the KPA that makes the Profiling sound so good.

All that matters is the sound that comes out the speakers, not the processing power.

I agree with you that all that matters is what comes out of the speakers, but no matter how great any programmer is, if the engine doesn't have the power, there will be limitations in what you can do, like playing back 2 amps at the same time, while using high quality effects etc, all at the same time, you need processing power, I admit most of my patches are very simple, but occasionally i might need a few patches that really push it to the limit, and it's good to know it's there, for some players who like to use lot's of effects it can make a difference.

Edit:

Well the axefx2 (2nd one lol) arrived.
Spent last night and a lot of this morning playing on firmware 5.07.
Not a lot of difference between what I remember of FW 4 and this one. I suppose I could go back to compare, but thats not why I got it or what this thread is for.
Awaiting the axefx profiling to give an overview of how the 2 compare.
FWIW, without profiling, it feels like a major step backwards compared to my last few weeks on the KPA.
Very nice (sometimes icky sweet) amps, all of which respond very well to your playing, but it makes no difference what amp you are on, they all 'play' the same. Its so easy to play it should almost play itself, but loses a lot of personality in the process.
And those IRs....yeeeuch.
FX are as great as ever though and I may keep it for them. We'll see.

You should paint your AxeFX with red & white stripes and rename it Waldo (or Wally in the UK), took me a while to actually find it in there...

"snax"?

Sure, why not. And now you have a Kemper toaster to warm them up.

My tascam dm 3200 also has them knobs with the lights that change via what fader layer your on.

04 ) I love the KPA UI much more than the AxeFx. Real knobs, LED-rings to show the stored values ...

I always wondered why this awesome feature with the LEDs was already in place of my first V-AMP(!) from Behringer
but Line6 still hasn't thought of it?!
