Kemper Profiling Amp PowerHead Set Reviews

Musical Witchcraft

After countless You Tube videos, I still can't quite grasp how they do it but I'm not complaining. This thing is amazing and I will now wrestle with which order to sell my amps...

Unbelievable

I have this about a month now and I am still only scratching the surface of what it can do. The definition of the tone is superior studio quality and its versatile beyond description. The peddle is also a great addition to the Kemper.

The only bad thing about the Profiler is that if you have a cheap guitar or pickups aren't wired properly, it becomes extremely noticeable very quickly. I hadn't noticed any noise with my previous rig but the definition of sound is so precise that it demands perfection from all elements of your set up. Which can only be a good thing really!

I had to adjust the truss and rewire pickups on one of my guitars but now everything sounds amazing. There is a good noise gate on the Kemper as well but be mindful not to over use it (as this can also cause buzzing - depending on your guitar)

The only other thing i noticed was that the sound from the headphone jack in the Kemper sounded way better then if using the headphone jack in an interface. You have to change settings in the kemper in order to fix this issue. Small problems! The thing is a beast. Buy it.

Best thing I've bought

This seems expensive, but I've now had this a couple of years and have probably saved as much money in valves, amp servicing, patch leads, power blocks, batteries, velcro, hinges... chiropractor (I ain't joking). I have also sold a few of my pedals.

As well as playing semi pro, I also engineer and often take my Kemper for guitarists to use because its so much easier and sounds better than rigging multiple cabs. They always look a little scared at all the lights and knobs but always and the gig by saying they wish they had one.

Serious kit. Serious fun. Seriously do not regret a penny.
