Hi Mark,

I think I will buy the Kemper Kone as it is low cost with free delivery, and I will put it in an old cabinet I have and see how the PowerHead drives it in FRFR mode.

Hi Bill

The Kemper Kone driver appears to be currently available in the USA at 180 dollars with free shipping.

I am also thinking of trying one with my Kemper to give a true FRFR output with the ...

Hi Mark, I am under the assumption that no speaker on its own can give a flat FRFR response as it has to be driven by a matching dsp amplifier which boosts the necessary frequencies to flatten out the ...

I have recently acquired a Kemper PowerHead (600W) and currently have two stand alone passive speakers which are the PF350 and TT12

My E lower is right knee left and I agree with Ian it would be better right knee right to give best pedal access playing the B6 tuning. Great topic which I must study later. Alan..

I am trying to create BIAB backing for a song with 6/4 timing at about 75bpm.

Hi Ian, Jerry The current poll looks clear cut enough. At least we can be sure steel players all think the same way, so when another musician thinks differently we can suggest unlike a keyboard the f ...
