Pretty disappointed in the Harley Benton Custom line thunder 99. There is an audible hiss if you go past 9 o’clock. I would not recommend.
I replaced my speaker cable with a much higher quality cable. The hiss drastically reduced. Meets all my needs as a home player. Plenty loud and clean.
I just tried this for the first time. The sound is amazing! I much prefer this than sending all effects through the Kone.
Bummer. Does it need to be cranked to get a decent volume?
I don’t think it needs to be cranked. I’m sure it has plenty of power. I just got my Kone and had my expectations really high but was disappointed by the hissing sound when I turned up the power. You get what you pay for and really liked that this had a stereo option.
Well, it is cheap as chips, so I was wondering where would they stand in comparison to other portable amps (this against the EHX Magnum, and the GPA-100 against the seymour duncan PS170/200), and hearing so many mixed results makes me hesitant to go for the GPA. Looks like grounding or shielding issue.
I will continue to troubleshoot. I replaced the figure 8 (c7) power cable with a US version. Maybe I bought a lousy one and need to try a replacement. I’ll try other outlets too to see if there is interference somewhere.

The BE100v4 profiles are awesome. I really love the fat profiles with a strat. These are some of the best strat sounds I have got so far with the Kemper. Really great stuff!
General opinion question regarding amps for the Kone/Kabinet. Is it good that most of the solutions presented in this thread have pre-amps rather than just a volume? Is it helpful/desired, or just one more unnecessary point of adjustment? (powerstage170, BAM200, ISP Stealth, Palmer Macht, Harley Benton, Hotone, Fryette, etc...)
What would the hands down, nothing left to wish for amp for the Kabinet look like?
Yes, I'm asking because I'm considering piecing together something that fits the bill using the newer ICEpower module (200ASC).
I’m sorry if this has already been asked but for those using the 200ASC are you using a RCA to TRS cable? Thanks
This is the best profile pack I have ever bought. Really incredible! Love the Carol-Ann profiles.
Thank you!
What´s about the tc electronic bam 200 (139 €). It´s originally for bass but I think it can be used for guitar too.
I would like to know if this would work as well. $179 US.
Thank you! Greatly appreciate it!
Seriously folks. Get Matt's BE100 pack. It's absolute killer and now with this crazy discount, you would be barmy to pass it up.
Totally agree. $10 for this pack is an absolute steal. They sound fantastic.
Just bought 3 packs. Thanks for the generous discount. That Revv Blackface...wow.
Thanks bossanova! These sounded really great.
I tried to rate these on the rig exchange but I couldn’t get it to work. I’m new here and it’s probably my user error. With adding reverb and delay these sounded fantastic.
I spent more time with the BE100 pack today and it is so incredibly good. Really top notch profiles. This pack can cover some serious ground. I highly recommend!
Thank you very much again Mattfig!
Thank you Matt for sending me your BE100 profiles. I am only through the middle gain profiles but I really like what I have played so far. These profiles are really high quality.
On some of the lower gain profiles I used a compressor-soft shaper- green scream-reverb- delay combo that was just money. I could use that all night.
Thank you again. Your profiles are really great. I’m thinking about trying you Soldano x88r profiles next.
