  1. Hi, Thanks everyone for the answers. After long A/B tests , I sticked with Fender FR12, I had both powercab 112+ and the FR12 for more than a week. Here is why (in my humble/casual player opinion) : * FR12 = It's a-just-work piece type of gear. * Powercab = a very complicated need to be an excellent sound engineer thing to make it work. I really tried all the possible combinations (including cab emulation) with the 112+, it just doesn't work like I want, too dark and boxy, or just an okay sound with FRFR mode. With cab emulation, it's even worse, it's like the cab was hidden by a carpet. In other hands, with the Fender FR12, you just need to plug the jack in, everything at noon, and it sound better, without any tweaks. I am a bit confused when I see posts of people that are enjoying powercabs, maybe I'm just stupid that I coudn't make it right with the PC 112+ or I have a very treble/presence sensitive ear. In all the cases I found my last piece of the puzzle ;)
  2. Hi, I want to get a cab for my HX Stomp, but I'm overwhelmed by the available options, and specially the different and sometime controversial opinions about every option. What I already tested, and to my hearing didn't like : - PA speakers, I find that the sound is too diffused and not concentred - Studio monitors, I found sterile and not warm at all I have a small generic cab with a Jensen P8R Alnico Vintage. It was just okay , but very far from what I hear with my headphones. Honestly I though I'ill get a Powercab 112+ and it will be endgame, but there is not enough reviews or comparison with an F12-X200 or a fender tone master FR12. There are even some that returned/sold their powercab and got the laney or the fender, I feel like the Powercab lineup is nearly abandoned by line6 as there was no firmware update from 2019. Because of this, I'm little bit skeptical about the Powercab. Here are my options : - Powercab 112+ - Laney LFR 112 - Fender Master tone FR12/FR10 - Harley Benton G112Plus Thiele (closed) + Celestion F12-x200 + poweramp - Harley Benton G112Plus (open) + Celestion F12-x200 + poweramp I mainly play Crunch/Rock/Metal. I wanted to ask Line6 community which is more Helix product focused. Thanks in advance
