I have a wonderful Top Hat Club Royal 1x12 combo, but it's just too loud for home playing. The TAE really works and I've got the sound I want within seconds of plugging it in! All the characteristics of the real amp are retained - the sweet spots for clean, crunch, heavier overdrive, use with pedals, the natural tube compression, it all works the same, just at a lower volume, whether using the combo 1x12 speaker, headphones or studio monitors. In addition, the reactive load and cab sims allow me to play through simulations of other cabs like a Marshall 4x12 or a Fender Bassman and they all sound great and realistic. Add in the direct recording facility to a DAW via USB and the TAE is a fantastic product. I deliberated over this purchase for some months but there was no need - it has exceeded expectations.
