Fractal Talk

My guess is the RL is simply using one inductor.

Yep.

With my 1987x I see and hear the same thing as with my JCM800, with Presence at 10 there is a about 6dB difference in treble compared to the models, so it's not my amps.
The difference in treble response came down to the impedance curve of the Suhr RL.

Here are the settings that match the Suhr RL.

The followup is thusly, I request a few slots of custom impedance curves so I can save and recall them quickly or use as a global impedance curve.

PS.
The models are spot on, I freaking love my Fractal.

The difference between here and TOP is that the peeps here can actually play. A TOP they flap their gums a lot and make outrageous claims but can't back any of it up with their playing.

One of the greatest monologues in cinematic history.

Probably makes me a bad dad, but I showed that film to my daughter, and she loved it right up until the guy got his head eaten off by frickin' sharks with frickin' lazer beams on their frickin' heads. She was terrified.

Oops.

The GOAT:

Resurrection

So, I live in Western NC. Eight months ago, my house was destroyed by Hurricane Helene. Actually, not so much destroyed, but completely underwater for 36 hours. I lost most of my music gear - amps, guitars, and Fractal gear (Axe-Fx Ultra, Axe-Fx 2, Axe-Fx 3, Ax8, FC-6, FC-12). It sucks, but...

Quad Cortex weeps at the sight of some dirty power!

It would take 2 years for them to weep and catch up

Fractal makes amazingly rugged gear. After I got my FM9, I sold my FM3 and was kind of amazed what good shape it was in. I played hundreds of shows and rehearsals and recorded an album with that thing and it barely had a scratch on it. That why I always wonder why people bother with screen guards for the FM9/FM3. I mean, they can look kind of cool, but aren't the actual LCDs already covered by big thick plastic lenses?

In my experience, the screen cover on the FM3 scracthes very easily. I recently bought a MKII and i'll keep the factory protector in for as long as it stays put.

Weird. My FM3 screen was fine when I sold it. I certainly didn't baby it. Maybe they improved the lens before I got mine?

I still got the factory stickers over the screen and scribble strips on my new FM9 MK2. It's only been over a month or something, but I'll just keep them on as long as they hold on lol. Not like it's getting abused sitting on my desk!

Oh no! Wait until they are 10 to whatever??? .... and the inadvertent and unexpected sexy time comes on the screen.



Gets way worse after that.

I stopped watching movies with my kids altogether. Not worth the pain and awkwardness.

Yeah I remember some awkward moments with my parents too!

I still want to see the whole 'Smash Every Other Modeler With An FM9' video through. @FractalAudio, there's gotta be an empty FM9 shell kicking around, something damaged/scratched that can't be sold? Think of it as promotional content!
