BINGO! :mrgreen
Well... I remembered that I have a very nice 2.1 FRFR PC speaker system (Logitech something - with a big 8" adjustable sub) that's been gathering dust down in my now-unused-office. I decided to set that up and feed it the Axe2 via the Phones jack and VOILA! There's what I've been looking for. Most patches sound fantastic now. Whew... There it is!!!
I'm VERY happy with this now. So much dimension, feel, HARMONICS, and... wow. Finally. All the problems I was having with the other more traditional rigs are GONE. I literally didn't want to stop playing. Alas, my family needs to sleep. The subwoofer was probably thumpin' the whole house. HAH!
I'm going to have to pick up some crankable near field monitors now. Absolutely no question. Forget about the Atomic. Forget about tube amp/cabs. If this little stereo rig sounds this good, bigger monitors with smooth horns should be amazing. FoH systems must LOVE this thing.
I didn't even tweak anything except to dial up the mix on the stereo delay (wow).
Hmmm... I might just get a couple of large active floor monitors and sell off this other stuff.
Tearing up the RMA. I'm one happy camper again.
Thanks to those of you who encouraged me to pursue FRFR. I had totally forgotten about my little FRFR setup downstairs. Yay for me!!!
