I've been using my Axe-Fx + ART SLA-2 + 2x12 V30 cab and it's OK. I'm 100% happy with my recording tones but the ART+CAB combo is a bit lifeless compared to my recorded tones.
Well today I had to run my Axe through some basic crappy t.box speakers and holy sh*t it sounded good. We had a Marshall halfstack in the room and I dialed in the same settings and used my favorite Mesa IR and the sound was 85% alike. I compared the feel and it was the same with the real halfstack and the Axe. I started thinking how the Axe would sound with some inexpensive FR speakers like: http://www.thomann.de/fi/behringer_eurolive_b212d.htm or http://www.thomann.de/fi/behringer_b_208d_white.htm
Do any of you have experience with these two together or something in the same price range? I like the idea of carrying my guitar rig all at once. The ART weighs like hell.
