I'm not as technically advanced to explain these things, but friend of mine, who know these things really well, opened both, Suhr and Torpedo, and told me that torpedo it's not working truly in "reactive" manner in low end part of the signal.
Somebody may disagree but, I personally never liked the way torpedo sounded, it has that dull mid-boxy feel to it.
I also saw situation when torpedo went overly hot from 100W Marshall, and asked to be turned off. I newer had this situation with 180 Herbert and Suhr(master volume anywhere from 9 to 1 o'clock which is ridiculously loud),
Maybe Torpedo is good device for live usage(because of midi, and because it's frets in 1U rack, but for home/studio usage I believe there are better, less complicated and reliable devices.
