Just got my MP-1, entering the world of rack guitar gear.

You're off to a good start. MJMP can mod your Microcab to a Monstercab, which if I understand it correctly, just turns the original Microcab into a Microcab II. It's definitely cool to get the character of your poweramp into the direct mix.

...yeah, I don't have a power amp yet. I'd need a stereo cabinet, or better yet the original A/DA Split Stack. Rather unfeasible in an apartment.
Not going to lie, Skid Row's "18 and Life" sold me on the MP-1. How they went from a chorused clean to a crushing lead in one shift amazed me.

I live in an apartment, and I have 8 Split-Stack cabs. Good luck trying for find those anymore, I'm still looking for two bottoms.
Popular opinions don't seem to favor stereo 4x12 cabs though, I can understand why. You can't get the separation or the wide stereo image that way.

I'm about to move to a new apartment, and thankfully this one is first floor. So I'd be better off with a pair of 1x12s than a stereo cab when the time comes...
I've also got the Sonic Maximizer on the way for opening up the tone when I'm going straight into the Microcab.

I have an Aphex Type C, which is the same thing as the Sonic Maximizer, and I like it for live applications at lower stage volumes. It works great for that. In recording situations though it seems to kill a lot of the dynamics. It definitely trims out the bass and low mids.
Just sayin'
DesolationBlvd:
And the Sonic Maximizer arrived yesterday after mail delays. And after all that, it was louder in one channel. Calibrated it, and now it provides that last bit of openness I was missing. No problems with bass, the low contour takes care of that.
