    Just purchased a power kab and I noticed it’s not loud unless it’s in the kemper kone setting. I hate the kemper speaker prints. Is there anyway to get more volume without the speaker prints?

    Check your Kone settings: Main Manual 8.5 , page 95 and further

    Hi! Are you saying that If you do not want to use Kone, you will not be able to use that 12db boost?

    The 12db poweramp boost works with imprints and full range mode.

    Glad to hear it worked out. When the Kemper doesn't work for me I always assume the problem is the dumbest thing in the chain which is always me ^^

    That’s strange. It should do. Have you reported that as a bug?

    Are you sure that your setup is correct? Did you read the Kone chapter in Main Manual 8.5?

    I've just checked the power amp boost on my Powered Toaster with the passive Kabinet. Definitely works in both Imprint and FRFR modes.

    On the contrary it does - also at Stage models - the effect is obvious - exactly as described in the manual.

    Hi Burkhard - another question in this context - I have a Power Kabinet & XiTone MBritt cab .... are there plans whereby I could only apply the imprints to the Kabinet (either Monitor out or Aux out) & no imprints (i.e. the cab of the profile) on the "other" side (mon or aux) for the XiTone cab ... and another feature: are there plans to add the power amp boost (incl. power consumption display) for "standard operation" i.e. "Kemper Kone" not ticked ...


    ... although I love the Kabinet - but have no intentions to sell the XiTone - which I still thinks is the best frfr solution I have tried of the last 8 years with my Kemper ....

    Have you got a Stage or a Rack/Head ?

    Do you send something to a mix table in this context ?

    Do you use stereo ?

    If you combine a KEMPER Kone - regardless of the housing - with another 3rd party cabinet, you need to use the MONITOR OUT - or SPEAKER OUT if you own a powered PROFILER - for the KEMPER Kone with Kone Mode activated regardless if you use Speaker Imprints (Monitor Cab. Off activated) or run in full-range mode (Monitor Cab Off inactive). For the other cabinet you need to use another output e.g. DIRECT OUT and don't activate Monitor Stereo. This way the Kemper Kone related sound optimization and other features won't affect the DIRECT OUT as these would be meaningless or counterproductive for this application.


    You could create a kind of stereo setup by selecting Output Sources like Master Left and Master Right for those outputs. And you need to manually adjust the levels of their output volumes to match their levels.


    Power Amp Boost exists in powered PROFILER models PowerHead and PowerRack since day one and is now also available for unpowered models and in particular to drive KEMPER Power Kabinets.


    I don't see a need for a power amp boost in combination with 3rd party gear. You can either increase 3rd party equipment input gain or raise output volume e.g. Monitor Output Volume at the PROFILER.

    Cheers Burkhard - makes sense for the most part ... one more question though ... though I typically do not intend to use the power amp boost with the XiTone (Power Kabinet only) - I can't see the power amp boost option without Kemper Kone selected - is this true or do I miss something ....

    Power Amp Boost is one unique parameter, which appears in two scenarios:


    1. page Kemper Kone, if Kemper Kone Mode is activated for application KEMPER Power Kabinet

    2. page Power Amp, which only appears at PowerHead and PowerRack models, for application built-in power amp
