This is for bedroom use only. I'm currently using a Yamaha THR-10 as the monitor for my MacBook (running every amp sim plugin there is through an Apollo Twin), as well as a Helix and Amplifire through the Aux input of another THR. Guitar runs through an FX8 and M-13 and a few stomps then into Radial switch boxes to switch between all of these input options. I also have an Amplfi that is a possibility as a speaker although it is underneath my desk and I'd prefer having something on the desktop. I don't want powered near-fields since there is not enough room on the desktop.
I just bought a Marshall Bluetooth speaker to compare to the THR and it sounded good (I got the Kilburn, but I may want the larger Stanmore). The THR aux input has some DSP to give it "space" while the Marshall is dry.
When I can get my hands on the AX8, it will take the place of the FX8 (which will go to its rightful place in my home studio).
I'd really like a good sounding monitor FRFR for my bedroom because I play there 90% of the time. Has anyone compared the IK iLoud to the Marshal Stanmore? The Marshall has an RCA as well as optical input which may allow me to run the AX8 directly in as opposed to using Aux splitters. Note - the optical may be for the Apollo, I have to research that, which would be killer flexibility. The Marshall also has tree/bass controls. But . . . . I also heard some good things about the iLoud, i.e., it sounds goods.
So, has anyone used either with an Axe-FX and can say which sounds better to them?
