I just bought HB GPA-400 power amp and connected that with my Axe FX 3.

also bought:

https://www.thomann.de/fi/pro_snake_tpl_15_aa.htm (to connect HB power amp to my 212 stereo cab).
Sounds really nice!
I tried and tested sounds that I didn´t bypassed out cabinet modelling and
also that I bypassed cabinet modelling from global settings, both ways worked nicely, of course
the sound was little bit different concerning which way to use that setting.
Connection:
Guitar -> Axe FX 3 Output 1 L and R (1/4 outputs) using TRS - TRS cable -> HB GPA-400 inputs L and R -> Channel A and B outputs to my
stereo cabinet L and R (Cabinet is Laney LT212 which I modified for stereo use. Earlier only mono and now mono and stereo choice. M/L and R)
Before this I had Axe FX 3 Output1 connected to my Presonus Studio 1810 with XLR cables and Presonus Studio then had my active monitors.
Now I can use same time simultaneously my active monitors and guitar stereo cabinet I want.
You can use simultaneously Axe FX3 Output 1 XLR and 1/4 outputs.
I don´t know which is the best Power amp for modelers but this HB GPA-400 is affordable price and sound for me really good.
I also considered Palmer Mach 402 but since lot´s of players gave good reviews about HB I bought it.
After all the most important thing is itself guitarist and sounds comes from finger. If player don´t have skills at all then there is no
equipments that save the situation ;D
