I finally got around to trying something last night with my 2 CLR wedges. With my tube amps I used open back cabs, so I'm used to the sound that comes out of the back and the reflections that mix with front. That's what I think of when I hear people say they want "amp in the room" sound. So, I put put one wedge on the floor (in back line position) facing toward me and put the other on top of it facing backwards. Output 1 went to the forward facing cab an Output 2 to the other one. Then, in the AxeFx I inverted the phase for Output 2 (this is the key piece).
I was not disappointed. It was that very familiar open back, in the room feeling. You can do some interesting things with this, too. For example, you can use a 4x12 IR and have open back an open back 4x12. Or, you can also adjust the level of the backward facing cab to taste and/or room size. Anyway, I don't know if I will actually use that technique all the time, but it is nice to know that it is available and very effective.
