ChristianArnold Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Hey guys, Here is a quick video comparison between the AMPLIFi and the POD HD500x's AC 30 Top Boost Amp Models. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l10Snbbjc4Y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinistralx Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Nice one Chris...HD500 definitely seemed to be more transparent in terms of hearing the guitars tone come through, that may be because it was just a slightly cleaner setting, not sure. with tones are great tho! I have the AMPLIFI75 and HD500x and love them both for their applications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_m Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 The HD500 clip did seem to breathe a bit more, for lack of a better term. Perhaps the Amplifi clip sounded more compressed. I also thought the way the delays sat on the original signal sounded a lot different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palico Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Nice job! I have a Pod X3 Live that I practice with and a POD HD500x I use with my band. You clip is dead on on the tones of each. I think the HD500x is bigger and more responive to your playing and I can almost tell on the clip where you dig into the stirngs a bit more and hold back a bit. The X3 tech (AMPLIFi) in your clip can indeed sound great but think the POD takes it overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
