Fractal audios having a "B" stock sale.

[vultures]

Cool.
So when you sell it in a couple months are you going to tell the buyer it's a 'B' stock?

No.

 

[maddnotez]

Well I took the plunge and bought one of the B-Stock's. Only downside is you buy, you own as their is no return. Full Warranty, in fact you can buy the three year if it bothers you. Not a scratch, blemish...nothing. Looks newer than new.

It's a fine unit. Delays and Verbs are outstanding. All the effects are great really. Right now still getting to know the unit though. I'm certainly hoping to make this my primary board on the floor just from the logistics alone. If I can make it work I'll have essentially the FX8, Wah and a Auto Wah. Not sure if I'll stick with the on board tuner or not. The Auto Wah is a Maxon, Marty Friedman had a trick where he turned the AW on but all the levels/sliders and switches were off...when you dig into the string it gives a slight vowel sounds. Very cool. It's this or 10 to 12 pedals and switching system. If I don't end up keeping, someone will get a heckuva deal.

Good choice. Don't listen to the haters. Mine was almost mint as well like I said. It took a few good days to even find the blem. A little tiny nic on one of the jack nuts for $200 off. No brainier.

FX8 - effects unit
AX8 - AxeFx "lite" in a floor unit.

Axefx are all junk anyways so this argument is pointless.

What an informative and well-thought posting. Truly an empirical statement that holds up under any scrutiny.

 

[timeroo]

Sorry fellas but the axefx is a pile of junk in comparison to the Kemper and that's a fact. Look at the evidence, look at how many big name and small name players have switched over. I have used two different axefx, a kemper and a ton of software sims and the kemper can't be touched on any level. Don't like my opinion, don't worry, I won't lose sleep over it. It's a dated and overpriced piece of gear but to each their own.

Okay.

It would do you good when discussing these things to not use words like "fact" as something interchangeable with an opinion.

That you think the Kemper sounds better than the AxeFX is only meaningful to you so it's in reality a subjective opinion not at all a fact.

There are some pretty big names on the Fractal Artsist roster. For instance Metallica. Name me a Kemper artist selling out stadiums. And I'm not knocking Kemper I have a Kemper, Axe and Amplifire. I love all 3 for different reasons.
