From my perspective, Kemper has always treated every support ticket in a timely manner and provides explanation of the issues and tries to resolve them. I agree with V8guitar's perspective as well: 
Thanks for the warning.
I've had my KPA 8 years with fantastic support.
If it stopped tomorrow, Id still be happy because it works.
Reverse one handed Slide with counter point on the left hand.
Thanks for the post Muddy. It's an interesting take on a slide guitar. He intonates well.
She's still got it.
I use 11-49s on the guitars and 1 lap steel. The other lap is tuned to a drop C, so it has a mix of gauges. Chrome S flatwounds 12s sound great on the tricone as well. After recently trying 10s, I couldn't get used to them so it's back to 11s.
After trying many strings over the years, what matters the most, my opinion only, is the gauge not the manufacturer so much. I do shy away from any coated strings Exilirs, etc. Your mileage may vary.
I use the 3u SKB shallow rack and carry it as hand luggage. The guitars go in an Enki double case in the hold.
I agree Karl. The 3U SKB works well as a carry-on and also fits the remote in the back of the rack.
Good job. Thank you.
Yes! Thank You G String for explaining a good method for creating a new performance.
Fwiw, I initially bought the Kemper during a very busy time at work. I had lost a bit of interest due to the workload, but now retired, I have time to re-learn. Cheers to the Kemper team and all the good people here on the forum.
This is interesting discussion. I also plan to give it a try as a preamp into a Dynaco Mark III. With 2 KT88s, it should be interesting. Results to follow.
I have still found a passive DI box to be the best and most transparent for profiling. The Kemper DI box is also a passive unit. A few years ago I posted and discussed a description and schematic for a passive DI box. See #161 and 162.
Lexan is a better choice over plexiglass.
The repair shop confirmed it. Power module is bad. $900 to repair the unit.
Unless board traces have burned, that's an outrageous price to repair a switchmode amp, Most likey the failures as Yoda Guitar suggested in order are the output FETs/Transistors, Class D driver IC or passives (caps,diodes). Out of the many switchmode supplies and power amps repaired over the years, I have never found any magnetics (transformers, coils) failed. Another issue to consider is that some parts may now be obsolete or have a huge back order.
GRIM68, I also suggest once you know the ICEPOWER part number, if it is no longer manufactured, a suitable replacement may work from the link paults suggested. You will need to verify if the original unit also included the power module. I believe it may have, but verify. Best regards
Since it's out of warranty, why not open it up and located the model number of the Class D module. Am convinced it is an ICEPOWER module from Bang Olusfen. If you contact B&O or a distributor after you have identified the part number, they may likely have a drop-in replacement where the footprint and external connections should work.
Yes, Thank You!
The pinnacle of slide performance.
Indeed Muddy!
For many years this simple metronome has worked well for my use. BPM indicator, audible, visible or both. Kemper optional, and less manipulation of the Kemper. Done. ymmv.
Thank you!
ST,
Thank you for the links. I'm sure many of us here will find your list valuable.
