Headphones and valve / tube amps

[Joe Garfield]

Wow, check out this thing! A mini modeling pre-amp that I can feed right to my headphone amp. It sounds pretty good, has a cabinet emulator, and seems to clean up well with volume:

I’m also looking at Two Notes ‘Le Clean’ tube preamp, which is a lot like the Kingsley Jester (or Squire + Page) but has cabinet simulation and is meant to go straight to line out. But many run with an additional cabinet emulator for direct out (just for tone, not for load.)
Edit: the Le Clean does have one speaker simulation

The Mooer pedal looks interesting. They also have a bunch of others for different amp flavours. Lots of youtube comparisons.
