Nicely done

I was gonna add if you were 74. I want the name of your plastic sugeon

Did I read that right you're 74. If so at 63 there is still hope for me yet

Sollazzon, That's great

Welcome Fuzzpop, I'm actually a few yrs older then you, but probably saw all those same tours, and grew up on all the same music.You'll love the KPA. So many vintage and modern tones it's unbelievable.

the 2 jacks on the back of the FCB1010 are switches. Designed to be plugged into an amp switch jack to switch channels or turn on reverb etc. they can be programed to switch on/off per patch. It might be possible to plug them into switch jack in back of KPA to do some additional switching, but you could not turn them on/off within the patch, but only at patch change

printed it off. very cool thanks

Ha! Great minds think alike

Congratulations! now ther sleepless nights begin. Have fun

After doing my comparisons , I agree on stage the hiss would be no problem

Well after about 10 days of working stupid hours, I finally have the time to post my findings on these fine cabinets.
I've never tried adding pictures so I hope this works. Obviously I'm an idiot and cannot figure out how to reduce the size of the photos to work here so! I wish I could have recorded a video of my little shoot out like Ingolf did, but alas no video camera.
I eliminated the Mackie coax 12 pretty much right off,as compared to the CLR and the DXR10 it did'nt cut it. It sounded OK but not as good as the other two.If size and weight are a factor It is still a contender
I used a little a/b box as well and did a few backup loops with my GR55. I used both set up as a monitor and dsp off on DXR
First off playing music from IPhone the CLR won hands down. just seemed more natural like my studio monitors. Playing loops with the GR I noticed a slight lack of clarity in the DXR with an accentuated mid.
Initially I played a strat ( out of phase p-up tone ) through a super reverb rig I thought the DXR sounded a little better then the CLR , but after playing through the CLR I noticed when I went back to the DXR it sounded a little thin (not bad ,just different) Now don't hit me ,a little like a strat through a Rockman, with the out-of-phase tone accentuated. Which in some ways I liked alot.
Mid gain sounds I noticed a pronounced mid range honk, which might work good to cut through on on stage. With heavier distortion Boogies, Diezels, Marshall they both sounded very good, but the tones started to sounded much more simular on the DXR, then the CLR. With the CLR the tonal differences in rigs seemed to have more clarity and definition.
My bottom line, and mind you just my opinion, the CLR is the winner. Not that the DXR wouldn't be completely usable and I'm sure would sound great on stage, I just thought the CLR was better. Also at stage volume the DXR didn't seem to be able to handle low and full synth sounds of my GR55 nearly as well. I don't play one but guess the DXR10 might have the same problem with a 7 string.
As far as the foot print I didn't find there to be that significant a difference, but appreciated the DXR being lighter. Thanks for taking the time to read this. PaulPS: I watched Ingolf's video's and our conclusions seem to be pretty close
Was able to add a picture finally , So you didn't think I was pretending.

Burkhard , I agree about the ramp up and brake speed on a Leslie, but I,m not hearing this on my KPA. I'm only hearing fast or slow

Smokin, congratulations, I don't think you'll be dissapointed. Been, gigging with mine for over a year and have never regretted it once.
