FRFR Xitone. - wow

[1poorplayer]

I've had my AX8 since it was released , and I've been listening to it thru my mixers using studio headphones , studio monitor speakers , and PA speakers. I've always thought it sounded great.
After playing a gig as a fill-in guitarist , with no IEMs , I used a PA speaker for a monitor.
The experience sparked my interest to try out one of the FRFR speakers mentioned here on the forum , so I did.
Xitone.
I've only used it for a few hours , but I am impressed with the sound. It sounds much more like an actual guitar cab , than anything else I've used. I really didn't expect it to sound so .....REAL.

I'm so close to buying one of these. I've been on the CLR wait list forever and I'm about ready to give up. Did you get a wedge or the open back cab?

Wedge. I don't know how it compares to others , but I DO know , I like the way it sounds.
I can see myself buying another someday.

I’ve had a 10” wedge for about a month. It was the final piece of the puzzle in making my AX8 sound as good as I knew it could.

I have a XiTone Openback and a Wedge. Both fantastic cabs. I agree with your assertion about it sounding (feeling) more like a guitar cab than other options. Congratulations!

I have a pair of Xitone dual 12" with my Matrix 1000 / Axe FX Xl II+ at home, and they're awesome! I recently bought, for my condo in Florida, (which is a whole lot smaller), an AX8, with a pair of Yamaha HS8's and they sound fantastic as well, perfect for smaller spaces and at lower volumes, can't be beat by the larger FRFR's. Takes a lot less to move 8" drivers than 12".

I'd love to have an active open back, along with my active wedge. That would be an amazing combo.

For now, I have the Xitone wedge and a CLR. Happy with both, and it's the best of both worlds in many ways.
