The 5 inch speaker? Or plugged into a cabinet? Or both? I like my little thr10x a lot for home practice.

Actually never plugged it into a larger cab. I got some great vh1 tones out of the Yamaha on its own with the built in speaker. How do you slave it out to a bigger cab? Thru the Headphone out jack?Marshall Freak":3vcafe2l said:Mailman1971":3vcafe2l said:I have the THR10X. It sounds great. But the Katana blows it out. My 2 cents.phil b":3vcafe2l said:

I would like to give it a whirl actually.

Well both actually, but mainly the built in speaker. The Yamaha is stereo and with the effects you can really get some pretty good tones. I think the Katana is mono {does it have a stereo out for 2 cabs?} so does it still sound better with the 5 inch speaker?

Yep, the Yamaha is really nice for dialing in that tone..reverb and all.

I played mine again last night. I still feel the same about it. I would pay $350 again tomorrow for it and then some. Hell, Iv'e paid more for boutique pedals. One of my old band mates came over last night and I demoed it for him. He was like "Get the fuck out, how much?"
I could see using this Boss in a place I didn't want to drag my $6K rig to. Or if I wanted something light weight and easy. Or for a backup to my main rig. Or gig with it all the time. Most people would never notice the damn difference anyway.
I almost felt shame playing the expensive stuff out for a 30 minute set. As an original metal band that's all we get around here.
Anyway. Carry on.

Damn thing is still making me smile. The best part is knowing that this is a new benchmark for guitar period. This tone at this price point.
Using the filtering available in the app the amp can cop many name brand vibes if you know how to get there.
Got my Dmoll "matched" lol. Used the parametric at 400hz with a narrow q for the midcut and knowing the diezels are filtered after the preamp around 7K i used the 8k option in the katan, then some A/B tweaking and close enough for government work at literally a tenth of the cost.
No im not selling any tube amps. Its not 100 percent. but neither would I be compromising if I was using the katana.
Dont care if it gets stolen or dropped or left in trailer.

Late to the party here, and I didn't read the entire thread so forgive me if I'm being redundant. I've had the 100w 1x12 combo for several months now (bought it on Halloween) and it's a total winner.
For the price of a booteek pedal, it's a total no-brainer. I bought it simply to have another practice amp that I was hoping would do double duty for use at jam sessions. Mission accomplished...this thing can hang with a band without even breaking a sweat. I've had no fear of using it as a back up to my live rig ever since...I haven't needed to use it in that manner but I wasn't concerned either.
The kicker for me is the feel and dynamic response...I like it even better than my old Axe-Fx in that regard. All for less money than I would blow on a single night out.
I'm not about conduct an amp sell-off, but this thing is too much fun not to own. If you can't make it sound great, the problem is in your mirror.
