Can't wait to try it out. If I like it enough ...maybe stereo
Loving my AX8 more every day.

The overall feedback seems pretty good on these units. I hope for the best. Worst case I'll ship it back to Sweetwater this is why I elected not to get two at first. This will be my first FRFR go at bat. Gluck I'm sure you will figure it out. If I dont like this I may try one with coaxial speakers vs the speaker/tweeter separated.I’ve had my ASC12 for a couple of days. Struggling so far.
It... depends. The Friedman ASM12 colors your sound, and if you like how it colors your sound, you'll like it.The overall feedback seems pretty good on these units.
Well I didn't pay attention and didn't realize the ASM-12 only has an XLR input, oops. Have to wait for a cable.
I'm stuck in an 80s Metal (early Metallica/Megadeth/IcedEarth/Maiden/Testament/Anthrax...etc) world if I can get them sounds I'm going to be in bliss.

Ok I finally got to try it.... wow just wow.
I cannot begin to express my excitement....
Count me in for #2... soon.
Tight bass, thump, everything I wanted. I just got done jamming like I haven't in like 20 years. I'm almost 50 as of next month and the sound I have between the AX8 & ASM12 is just the bomb. So happy.
I wonder. Did you go through all the level settings? Because I was struggling big time til I saw that Austinbuddy gain stage tutorial. I honestly at one point was hating the AX8 early on thinking something was wrong and it was just all my levels.Thats great bro, happy for you.
I wish I had the same excitement. I'm trying so hard to make this work, but, its just not hitting the spot just yet. I will continue to persevere, but i'm closer to giving up and just using my Yamaha DBR12's and grabbing another amp.
Cheers Mate.I wonder. Did you go through all the level settings? Because I was struggling big time til I saw that Austinbuddy gain stage tutorial. I honestly at one point was hating the AX8 early on thinking something was wrong and it was just all my levels.
Summary of my level settings:
AX8 output knob at max (let friedman or poweramp control main loudness level)
Check your actual instrument level in the IO section of setup (forgot what page) i lowered mine a ton.
Db levels of input.
Whenever I get some fizz I cut out the highs.
One thing Ive been guilty of is scooping too many mids and I cant believe the diff not doing that. I was punching through the blackened backing track unlike before.
Anyhow if you know the above no disrespect intended just trying to help a brother out.
Whatever works for ya if it wasn't for differences in our ears there would be one product to suit all and no market.FWIW, I love the AX8, it isn't going anywhere, just unsure about the ASC12.
It's been hardwork, considering i had no dramas coaxing good tones from my DBR12s.
