So I have another custom build going with Mick from Xitone and as part of that I'm going to use a Matrix GT1000fx (I will post pictures and a review when it's done). Since I don't actually own any real cabs any more I decided to bring the amp to rehearsal on Sunday and rent a Marshall 4x12 cab (no idea what speakers was in it), just to make sure that the amp worked properly. I've gotten so used to my Yamaha DXR10 which is small but definitely loud enough for all I need, and wow, that Matrix into Marshall cab sounded soo much bigger. I had a lot of fun until one song where I use a tone match as an acoustic simulator and it just sounded absolute crap through the Marshall cab, completely unusable. I switched to a completely clean preset instead but thought to myself, yeah, that's definitely one reason I still want to use FRFR, and I really wouldn't want to be lugging around a 4x12. And every so often, it is still good fun!
