Fractal Audio AMP models: 1987X (Marshall 1987 Vintage Re-issue)

I sold my 1977 JMP 100 watt and YJM100 to fund my axe fx and matrix gear. No regrets but those were class amps. The older plexis seem to have more warmth.I have aso parted with another super lead from the 70's, Bray 45/50 and Marshall Major along the way. All quality amps but the Axe is far more practical for me these days. The day I sold my last marshall I plugged my axe fx in and did and A/B comparison and the Axe totally held up so have been happy ever since.
 
I just discovered this amp. Wow. Love the roll off volume to clean - and the roll up volume for crunch. The tones are great. For Cab I was using F189 4x12 Creamback Mix (Cel) and loving it. For experiment I tried F110 1x15 SV Bass Subkick - rolled of volume on neck pickup. Added some nice creamy darkness. Fun amp. Thankful for Yek's work. With over 200 amps this is a nice reference when you go searching for some diversity.

Would love to hear how others set eq and cabs.
