'Radial X-Amp'

By Rob Shrock

"...the flexibility of re-amping, and the utility of the X-Amp was abundantly clear. I was sold." ... "X-Amp flawlessly does what it is supposed to do. The signal it produces is clean, strong and sounds exactly as the original guitar output. The unit is built like a tank, and you get added versatillity from it's output control and dual outputs. ... " If you regularly mic guitar amps in your studio, the X-Amp is a no-brainer."

'Radial Engineering X-Amp'

By Mitch Gallagher

" 'Re-amping' is a way of life for me — as a backup, I track all guitars direct so I can go back and re-record with a different tone. With the X-Amp, Radial has provided an outstanding tool for re-amping — and the price is right. Chalk up another winning creative tool for the Radial crew."

'Radial X-Amp – Reamplification redefined'

By Darwin Grosse

"The ability to drive two amps is almost overkill for this kind of device... having both a small tube amp and a larger solid state 'shredder' immediately available gives a studio an interesting pair of options at the flip of a switch." ... "In every case the X-Amp lived up to its end of the bargain. In fact once it was hooked up, it needed practically no attention whatsoever. I found the X-Amp became one of those 'always on' devices that quietly sat on a mixer channel, ready to leap into the fray whenever needed. Want to add some reamplification to your life? the X-Amp is a great (and reasonably priced) way to make it happen."
