Headrush FRFR-112 Active Monitor

A lot of Power

This is amazing. The sound quality is amazing, and the headroom is perfect . I can use this as a straight ahead monitor for my PA ,or a speaker for my effects unit. Versatile ,and the build quality is top notch .It feels like a solid unit that could take everything that a live set up could throw at it.

Great for digital boards

May have a little too much low end for home or practice space, but is great in live situations.

May be used as floor monitor or PA speaker on smaller gigs.

Easily can run two digital modelers on rehearsal.

Great for bass players with digital boards.

Big clear full sound

So good I bought another!

Sounds clean as promising, has good features

An absolute bang for the buck if you need a good quality FRFR or any active speaker. Sounds great with a modeler, as it's meant to be, but can of course be used as a live monitor if needed.

The 12 cone is preferrable, in my opinion, if you want your modeler to respond similarly to the tube amps you're used to.

I also love the fact that there's more than one input, allowing this monitor to actually cover a lot of situations. Only thing I would add is a more comprehensive EQ section in the back, as there's just a switch for "Contour" but I'd love to be able to better control low and high frequencies.

Great

Using this with Helix LT in my studio, sounds great, also using pair of them in rehearsal room as FOH, for guitar, vocals, samples and bass. They do the job just great.

Bought it for Kemper

Headrush is OK bang for a buck, sounds much nicer then playing through desktop monitors.

I have A-B'ed it with Laney LFR 112. Opted for Laney as there was a noticable difference in wooden cabinet oposed to plastic housing that Headrush is built of. Notes were singing more natural and with wooden texture, while Headrush sounded more like PA.

I got the best results with Kemper Kone so I opted for that option

Headrush FRFR 112

I purchased this unit for the sole purpose of home practice, this product ticks all the boxes: Amazing sound, amazing clarity & Deep low ends & clear highs with no speaker distortion.

Pros: Very solid / Well built, Very impressive 12" speaker, Extra handles

Cons: You need angled cables if you want to use as a wedge

Superb

Used on stage for small gigs with Line 6 Helix. Loud sound and easy to carry.

Perfect For A Variety Of Uses

With the release of outstanding and flexible modelling amps like the Fractal Audio AxeFX and Line6 Helix, the need for super-loud valve amplifiers is rapidly diminishing. However, if you don't want to record directly, use desktop monitors/headphones or run straight to a PA for live use, you still need a power amp and cabinet(s).

Well, you used to need a power amp and cabinet. This Headrush FRFR Monitor changes that.

Whether you want to keep the volume to neighbour-friendly levels, crank it to use with bandmates or use it as a monitor on the stage, this does it all. I haven't used it at live performance levels yet, but I have no doubt it would cope.

I've accidentally kicked the speaker grille a few times and there's not a mark on it (more than can be said for my old Marshall cab, years ago). I'm definitely going to add a second one to enjoy stereo effects.

A pair of Marshall 2x12 cabs would be over 50kg and cost over €1000. Plus, you'd need a power amp. A stereo pair of these is 32kg and under €600. If you use a modelling amp or multiFX, get one of these.

... or two!

Great sound, perfect for my needs.

First time I use a FRFR speaker, and sounds better than I expected, for both guitar and bass guitar.
