But I'm not a fan of compression either, so that probably wouldn't work for me anyway.
But I love reverb, and it is indeed meh, so that was another big problem. I don't think I liked the chorus either - it seemed to have an odd-shape modulation if I remember rightly, so it sounds quite artificial.

You can really hear that 250ml sound during this solo at 3:20 onward.

I believe Dan Spitz used to have the wall of Marshall image, too - whilst playing through a mic'd up Boogie MKIII combo.
Im the only guitarist in LSI now so I use both 4x12s
if you do switch to stereo be a good citizen and switch back afterwards (or borrow another cab)
The stereo option on the cabs is 8 ohm per side so don't use that unless you turn the GK's speakers off. If you're using two cabs you need 16 ohm mono on each cab. (The right hand jack on a Marshall.)
I really dislike these switching panels, they're a recipe for confusion, unreliability and blowing amps...
And whatever you do, don't connect it to the same stereo cab with the cab switch set to mono, since that's the same as connecting the Ext jacks together.

Sounded HUGE !!
And here it is! Sounded surprisingly thick for solid state but not much in the way of dynamics
then you need the valve punch to get yiur message over
thats always my problem with solid state
they sound great on their own but I don't know how to integrate them into a band and subsequently I spend all night fighting between it being too loud or too quiet
Not saying that's the law it just doesn't work for me
I've had good results with older Peaveys, Marshall Valvestates and a few others though.

....but the cleans cut really well, huge stereo width with the chorus on.
Agree on the Valvestate, I've got one and it's great!
Totally can see why people aren't into them. It kinda does one thing really well and nothing else. If you ever get the chance, roll back the trip pots on the top and you can get great compressed cleans. The chorus is very unique, shame it wasn't available anywhere else. The reverb.... meh haha
