I’m quite excited by the Stadium announcement. I’m especially looking forward to the Stadium version of the Stomp.

Meanwhile, I’m taking advantage of a shift in the local used market; I’ve just agreed to buy a Helix Floor and a Temple Audio Duo 34 board w/original bag all supposedly in excellent condition, for a bit less than I’ve seen them go for lately. So I believe I got good value for money.

I've seen 2399 for the Stadium XL, and 1999 for the Stadium here in Italy, taxes included.

Remember that US prices are always shown before taxes.

We do some bizarre shit over here. Most prices are shown before including sales tax which can not only vary by state, but also by county or even city, so it’s hard to know what you will actually pay as a tourist, even an American one.

One big exception to that is fuel, where the advertised price includes taxes and the stations are generally not allowed to post prices without all taxes included. Don’t ask me to explain the logic behind that.

Anyway, where I live, we pay an 8% sales tax on top of the advertised price so an $1800 modeler will really cost $1944.

Here is a list of sales tax rates just for New York State in case you want to know what something will cost before you check out. Super simple right? There are only 80 different tax districts that may or may not have different rates which are never posted and not included in the price tags.

Yep, and then imagine going out to eat and being expected to tip an additional 18-25% after the 8% sales tax. So your meal costs practically 30% more than the price on the menu.

This was an interesting post/ questions I read… anyone know the answers

I wonder if Agoura amp models will dispense with the need to have separate models for different channels of the same amp. For example, rather than having three separate models for Solo Lead (Clean, Crunch and OD) you would just have ONE Solo Lead model with the ability to change channels within the model, just like you would with the physical amp. That would make for more versatility and hopefully take up less DSP than running multiple amp models in the same preset.

Also, I've always wondered why so many of the existing multi-channel Helix amps don't have the clean channel modeled? I have a Bogner Shiva preset and use the German Mahadeva for the overdrive sound, but had to use a US Double Vib placed parallel in the chain for the clean sound. Why not also model the Shiva's clean channel? Or is it considered unnecessary because so many classic clean amps are already modeled and they just assume users will default to those for their clean sounds
