Finally received the invitation and ordered an AX8. What should I use for amplification? I will only use the AX8 at home. Studio monitors? Friedman FFRR? What would you recommend?

If you don't have monitors i would make the investment in that vs the friedman.

Studio monitors at home for me.

I'd get the Friedman FRFR but that's just me.

I think I'm going to go with the Friedman.

Just ordered one myself from Sweetwater but it's on back order. I hate waiting.

MF also have them on back order. I'll place the order once Sweetwater gets them. In the meantime, I'll use some Adam A7 monitors that I have.

Good choice!!
I love mine man. I'm still wanting to get a second one to get that awesome stereo separation but sounds great even by itself.

Does anyone know if its possible to put casters on this thing (Friedman FRFR). My understanding is that it is a bit heavy.

My Sweetwater rep said they should get some more in next week. Fingers crossed.Econ":3v1ehnpo said:
Right now I'm using an active XiTone wedge with my AX8 and it does sound good. I also have 2 passive XiTone wedges that I run in stereo with my Axe-Fx XL and Matrix power amp but I will want 2 get a 2nd Freidman as well to run stereo with the AX8.romanianreaper":3v1ehnpo said:Good choice!!

I was thinking about going with the passive Xitones. I already have a power amp for mine. My buddy is nudging me to go for the friedmans but i don't play enough to justify spending that much.

I'm not sure. A few of us were having this discussion months ago and wondering how putting casters on would affect the tone, etc.
It is heavy but since it is more compact than most P.A. speakers, it is actually easy to carry. I don't gig anymore but if I was, I would probably just use a small hand cart with them. Would be great if they had handles on the ends though. I used to have a Genz Benz 2x12 and that thing was so easy to carry because of the casters.

You can't go wrong with an Atomic CLR.
