Hughes & Kettner Red Box MKIII
Has anyone ever used one of these boxes on their combo instead of mic'ing the speaker?
The Red Box MKIII converts your amp's line out or speaker out signal into a balanced, frequency-compensated signal that you can feed directly into a mixer. An upgrade over the MK II, the III features a switch to emulate either a 4x12-cabinet or combo.

Get a Palmer PDI09. I used the H&K for years, the Palmer sounds less fizzy.

I've been using an old original one with my Hiwatt for the last year or so..... Sounds great with no feedback issues.
I'd like to get a MkIII. Does anyone know if the MkII will work with phantom power?

I use the H&K Pro in a stereo set-up. I think they sound better when fed a line signal from my board instead of the amp signal. I just loop one side through to the amp on stage and feed the house a pair of line driven HK pro. Seems less buzzy to me that way.

I have one hooked up to a Brunetti preamp and it's very good. The 1 x 12 setting is great.
Selling due to a palmer PDI arrival.. Last edited by buchla300; 08-12-2010 at 01:34 PM.

Oh, and I use the line out of my amp to feed it instead of "speaker through".......

I use the Pro (with speaker sim off) fed from the 16 ohm output of my amp to feed the wet side of a wet/dry rig, works great for this.
