thanks Raznor,

I just discovered that there is RCF NX on demo in a music store 2h driving from home,

I'll definitely give it a try as soon as I get the KPA back

HI Reznor,

I'm waiting for my KPA replacement right now (can't wait..) and I'm very interested on RCF NX-12SMA, I read the thread on fractal forum,

the general consensus there was that this monitor sounds VERY good and really "hi-fi" clear with the Axefx,

my question is : how do KPA+ RCF NX compare to a real tube head+ 1x12 or 2x12 cab on medium to high gain sounds ?

I only demoed the KPA on a FBT stage monitor (not the verve 12ma, I don't recall the model but I guess it was some entry/mid-level model, nothing fancy), while the cleans and slightly overdriven sounds were excellent, on medium to high gain sounds I had the impression of a bidimensional sound, I guess because of the not so good monitor.

Does the RCF delivers that "amp in the room" feeling? especially on dirt sounds?

thanks

Fabio

Just out of curiosity:

on my unit the only thing that get lit once I turn it on is the screen, knobs & buttons are not.

Is this normal?

thanks

lucky you, no joy here..

I'll try with the system, rig and quick buttons but I doubt it will work, at this stage I really think is an hardware problem

thank you very much for your help Armin anyways

Yes I keep the buttons pressed all the time

I tried holding softkey 1 (is it the one next to the "type" knob right?) and turning on (tuner)

still not working..

It does not display this message...

I tried several times your procedure but no success

I turn it on, the loading bar goes to around 80% then disappear, I turn it off, press&hold <>, switch on to "tuner"

but still same result: the loading bar goes to around 80% then disappear...

It might be an hardware problem, I don't know...

HI Armin,

it apparently does not load the latest firmware from the usb stick, (shouldn't the kemper advise that it is booting from usb?, does some message like" firmware update" or "usb loading" apperar on screen when it load something from usb? )

-I turn it on (on tuner) while pressing > <

the loading bar goes up to around 80% then the screen gets slightly less lit and the loading bar

disappears and stays that way forever, "kemper profiling amplifier" remains on the screen...

-I turn it on (on browse) while pressing exit

same result...

(I tried the above putting the kaos.bin file directly on the root directory & putting it in a OS Update folder)

guitarnet: I'll try that, even though Kemper support told me to put the kaos.bin directly on the root directory

armin: already tried that and not working for me

thanks for your input guys! really appreciated

Hi Niklas,

I contacted Kemper support, they told me to boot from a FAT32 formatted usb stick with the new firmware

(turning the unit on while pressing exit), but did not worked, I reported that to Kemper support on friday and

currenty waiting for their response, hopefully tomorrow .

It's a bit frustrating to have this fantastic new toy and not being able to use it

ciao

Fabio

Thank you for your feedback guys, really appreciated

Joeblob: I've read it but my problem seems a bit different, I'll re-read it anyway

Guitarnet70: I don't know, the box was nearly perfect and cosmetically the unit seems immaculate..

I think all I can do at the moment is to wait for K team reply to my assistance request and then decide

whether to send it back and have a new unit...

Hi everybody,

my name is Fabio, I live in Genoa, Italy.

I've been waiting the Kpa to be released since May and eventually arrived home today.

To my deepest disappoint it can't complete the OP boot:

I turn it on following the instructions, the loading screen regularely appears, the

loading bar goes up to around 80% then the screen gets slightly less lit and the loading bar

disappears and stays that way forever, "kemper profiling amplifier" remains on the screen...

I know that kemper team is at NAMM, so I'm not expecting instant support.

Any ideas? Does anybody have the same issue.

most probably it is a software problem, I don't know........ so sad right now

thanks

Fabio
