Headrush FRFR-108 MKII

[Zach Haley]

Greetings! Are there any folks using the Headrush FRFR-108 MKII as their speaker for the Axe Fx3? If so, here are some questions:
1) Are you happy with it and is it good quality?
2) Have you used it in a live setting? If so, how did you do that and was it good results?

I have always used my AC15 amp with my AF3 but just joined a new band and planning on getting a FM9 and one of these Headrush units for band practice and playing live. I am a bit nervous since I have never done this.

I used to have one. They are definitely meh. With the proper EQ, they can sound decent. Check out this thread: https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/flattening-the-headrush-curve.175796/page-15#post-2484383

I have 2 - 108s for sale. Mk1 model.
They don't suck. We ran a whole band through them at rehearsals. Worked perfectly.

They are decent and loud.
... but they need a LOT of eq to make them useable . I still have 2 around here somewhere.

Apologies. It's my gut reaction everytime they are mentioned

Is like putting snow tires on a track car. I don't get it.
It works, but why get a track car to cripple it?
There are better options on the not crazy expensive side, they just cost a little more than this... b/c they get QC and are a bit more neutral.
Lots of threads on this if you look.

It's more compact than a 12 inch, so it's easier to drag along or store. Sounds decent I guess, . Plenty loud. Mine's probably Mk1, on which it doesn't angle well horizontally with the way the cables stick out. Not sure if MkII fixed that.
