I have the KHE 4x4 unit using it with a 1967 Deluxe r=Reverb, a 1961 Vox AC10, a 1983 Marshall JCM800 and a UA OX... oh man what an incredible machine for a home studio. No more re-wiring when I want to hear a different amp/cab/attenuator. WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY!
Just curious, what were the import fees on the 4x4? I'm looking at buying one in the US but the cost is ballooning with the large shipping cost and then then import fees on top
I’ve been waiting for a good version of something like this to come out that doesn’t more than 2 cabs. With all the reamping, fancy di boxes, cab sims, attenuators, amps, guitar interfaces, etc that are out today, you could basically make a guitar recording console. Like a beautiful one stop shop for guitar. Imagine having a massive collection of amps and cabs always turned on hooked to a power sequencer, hooked up to these things all daisy chained together. You just press a button and route anything anywhere. With pro effects loops, normal effects loops, a Peterson strobe tuner.
I bought a KHE 4x2 about 2 years ago. It is still the BEST purchase I have made for my home studio. My only regret is not getting an 8x4. I quickly outgrew the unit I bought. Also, Markus is THE MAN!!!!!
Nice, some archon love. The 100w archon head is the only amp I’ll ever need. It does everything I could possibly want. I love it. When I want some vastly different tones , I just change cabs.(I mostly use the 4x12 prs stealth cab)
And MIDI programming is a breeze on these - just go to whatever channel you want on your MIDI switcher, select the amp and cab channel on the KHE and then hold the write switch. Done. GREAT product!!
oh my god please do a shootout of all of your rectifiers. Hearing them back to back with the flick of a switch will make it easier to hear the difference
@@ChuckNicholsonTRM yep I saw that on Reverb ! I thought it was an American product ☺️ Switzerland is very close but taxes could be more important than Shipping from USA ahah thx !
Fluff mentions the 8x4 costs $1300 but after shipping, import fees and taxes expect to pay $1500-1600 when all said and done. Mine is on its way but I expect it to be worth it.
I recently saw this product on TH-cam and think it is incredible. What kind of warranty does this product have? This would definitely make life much easier for me in my music room.
Not the same thing, but I made my own amp switcher with a DPDT switch that allows me to uncouple my front L/R speakers from my home theater surround amp and have them driven by a completely different amp/preamp setup for listening to vinyl. Mounted it in a metal tin that a wallet came in. Looks cool, works perfect, cost less than $10.
then add the layers of looping options and noise gates. I'd get stuck trying everything in every way, and in the end back to the recto/6505 thing that just works.
Wow I just went to their site for the first time. Using the link abilities you can literally do any combination. You could have a 80x80x80 amp/cab/fx switching setup given you had a nuclear power plant powering your house. I thought I read that you can use the fx native to the amps on different amps, but that was too good to be true. That would be an insane feature. Like your fender reverb? Use it on slo100. Like some random delay or chorus on a practice amp but the amp doesn’t sound good? Use it on your expensive amps.
Hi Jordan, thanks! Yes, up to 15 switchers can be linked (one customer already maxed this out haha). The fx-loop switching works a bit different: It does not allow to share built-in effects from amps with other amps (like amps with spring reverb or such). The fx-loop switching feature allows to connect each amp's fx-loop send/return to the KHE, and connect the fx-pedals like delay reverb or eq ('post'-fx) to the 'master fx-loop' of the KHE. This way, you can share a single pedal-chain with all amp's fx-loop (needs a lot of cables though, but it's a lot of fun and very efficient use of resources). Cheers :)
Nice! I've been looking at the KHE stuff for a while now. How does it handle amp/cab mismatches? If I have 2 cabs hooked up to the KHE. One an 8ohm and one a 16 ohm. If I have a Mesa Dual Rec with the speaker cable coming out of the 8ohm jack going to the KHE and I switch to the 16ohm cab, that is a safe mismatch. But what if I have a another amp with the speaker out coming out of the 16ohm jack going to the KHE, and then switch to the 8ohm cabinet? That is a unsafe mismatch, correct? How does the KHE deal with unsafe mismatches?
My problem is this: I run an AxeFx in stereo to a stereo matrix poweramp then into a left cab and a right cab. I’m trying to figure out how to switch from the AxeFx/matrix rig to a fryette stereo poweramp at the click of a switch but using the same two cabs left and right. Most switchers I have been checking out can’t take in two channels from a stereo poweramp nor split out to the two separate L/R cabs while playing through either poweramp! Anything I should be checking out??
Do they make one that allows me to use multiple heads and cabinets ie, the Mesa and a 4 12 , simultaneously with a slo 30 paired to a 212? I like using lots of stuff all at once. A sonic stew if you will 🔊🥘🔊🎸🤘🏽
Poo, afaik none of the bigger amp switchers do this i.e this one, ampete, kahayan etc, but some of the smaller Radial ones do, but typically only two amp heads max
Theoretically, you could use two of these switchers and run 2 amps at a time. Its expensive though. They do make small versions that are less expensive though.
The KHE acts as a pass thru, not a load when a cab is engaged. So you would treat any cab like you normally would, just use that handy selector on your amp :)

I have two of those hooked up for my wall of amps. The KHE stuff is incredible. And made my workflow in the studio so much better.

Is it safe to use with a reactive loadbox (no cab)?
@@manos6426 I use it with a UA OX, so yes.

Awesome video, thank you Fluff 😀💥🤘 Happy switching 🪕🪕
De Lisle has an attenuation loop and switch as well which is much better. It also has a input that goes to each amp and ground… check that out.
Yep, very good units. But no midi unfortunately
Just got mine last week! I was so glad when I found out these existed.
Thanks a lot Chuck, happy switching! 💥😀

Would be cool to hear it when you have all your amps setup with it. Great way to compare amps
Impresive ! I hope we could find this monster in France 🤩
It comes from Switzerland, so should be easy for you.

I have a ACS 8×4 and it's AMAZING! I'm actually thinking about getting another one!
Oh man, that's awesome! Love the Archon and Silver Jubilee

The Silver Jubilee blew the doors off of the other two, and im a Mesa guy, actually maybe not.
Never knew how full that jubilee sounded until now. Wow
That's pretty awesome for those who need it!
thanks for the info. very clear, and appreciated.

How great is that new PRS Archon.
Damn!

Great idea though to be able to mix any of them

That's fucking sweet dude
mesa cab is the winner
This would be even better if it were footswitchable!
It is, via midi...
What make of cable is that I like the swivel link, and what are the pucks under the khe?
Hello, can they be played with the two A+B amplifiers at the same time?
New mix on the intro?
yeppppp
What if all of your cabs are not the same resistance?
The KHE acts as a pass thru, not a load when a cab is engaged. So you would treat any cab like you normally would, just use that handy selector on your amp :)
@@RiffsAndBeards aaaahhhh, was just wondering as I have both 8 and 16 ohm cabs and have to be careful switching amps to cabs.

I’ve been eying this since I saw Ola play one
He needed that ACS 8x4 to showcase 3 amps, 1 cabinet and an IR loader. Brilliant! 🤡
you literally did a review on the ampete like a year early. it's literally next to play! LIER
