Really cool yek. Thanks!I made a table that shows the recommended (AFAIK...) Amp and Cab settings, depending on the amplification method.
Let me know if I got something wrong.

FRFR speaker only = any powered FR monitorThe first two columns, FRFR speaker only and SS PA + FRFR speaker, are the same thing, are they not?

SS PA + FR speaker = passive FR monitor + separate SS power amp, such SD PS-170, Matrix etc.
IMO columns 4 and 5 should match columns 2 and 3 respectively. A "neutral" tube power amp (if one exists) is no different than a solid-state power amp.
I agree, it's effectively the same thing. But there will be folks that are new to the FRFR world that will wonder if there is a difference....so I think it's smart to have 2 columns.But the only difference is whether the power amp is in the same box as the speaker, which is surely not relevant. (I don't mean to nit-pick, it's obviously a small point and I'm appreciative that you spend the time to do it.)
My only question is: For SS PA and Guitar Cab : why is the Amp Output mode 'FRFR/SS PA + Cab' (which I assume means 'or')?
Why would FRFR be the proper setting?
Wouldn't the neutral tube poweramp still have reactive effects to the playback speaker cabinet while the solid state Amp would not?IMO columns 4 and 5 should match columns 2 and 3 respectively. A "neutral" tube power amp (if one exists) is no different than a solid-state power amp.
