Experienced
I’ve only messed with the engl savage and diezel vh4 (the highest gain version I think) models enough to draw conclusions on. I also use one of the lower gain diezel models and then maybe the shiva or something, but I just don’t play a whole lot of stuff with those at the moment.
The engl I think sounded fairly similar, but felt better especially in the low end. The VH4 is one that I’ve always been amazed by the low end punch but disappointed by just about everything else. With no tweaking at all I booted up into 2.0 and fell in love with the diezel model. The top end was just so much more clear and defined, the low end lost no amount of that amazing punch and the whole thing just sounded and felt so much better. I don’t think I wound up really tweaking anything, but I might at some point just because it’s what I do.
Should also note I play through a matrix and a Vader 2x12 so I’m not commenting on anything related to frfr or the cab block interaction.
