I run various amps as my dry, but I like to run them into my W/D/W rig which consists of the following.
Use a custom Suhr ISO box to get a line level signal. I run that into a Mark L Custom stereo line mixer. For effects I use an Eventide Eclipse and Korg DL8000R. I run it all into a Mesa Boogie Strategy 400 power amp which is modified for depth circuits for each channel. Note that my “wet” cabinets have both wet and dry signals running through them.
I use custom Suhr ISO boxes, not the production model.Sounds great - I use Bray LO-1 to tap the speaker signal and it sucks some tone, not so clear as directly amp to cab. I wonder if Suhr ISO is worth the upgrade.
Yes the Suhr it worth the upgrade IMHO. The Suhr is a transformer isolated signal design much like what's incorporated in the the famous Jose load box. The Suhr provides the exact signal tone, it does not color the tone or impart any noise to the tapped signal. For any W/D/W or instance where you need to tap your amps signal to feed effects and into another amp I highly recommend the Suhr Iso Line out. I own two of them and I''ve been using them trouble free for over ten years.I wonder if Suhr ISO is worth the upgrade.
I'm "pretty" sure I still have one? Sorry to sound flaky but I haven't done the W/D thing in 8 years or so. I'll have to look in my storage, but I'll let you know.Great topic!
I've been on a huge mission to get a W/D rig put together and have everything except 1 important item..
The 'Suhr ISO Line Out' is nowhere to be found these days. I've been looking for months and have exchanged numerous emails with Suhr on how to get one with very little help. I'm told must be got through a dealer but I haven't had a Surh dealer want to help me out on that so I feel completely stuck. Spent a bunch on the setup not realizing the final item (Suhr ISO Line Out) would be so difficult to find.
Does ANYBODY have any ideas or leads on where to locate one or are these becoming unicorns?
So confused what to do...
Thanks for any help

The Reactive Load can serve the same purpose when connecting the thru to a cab. Catch the line out to your FX. - costs a bit more but also has dual purpose. Output specs are the same.
