I finally recorded my peavey XXX head tonight. it was nothing spectacular, just an SM57 about 3-4" back from one of the speaker cones and to the left about an inch from center and angled towards the cone. I didn't have much time to adjust the mic placement, so I'm sure I could have gotten better results, especially if I had a mic preamp instead of going straight into my computer. but anyway, after cutting some of the low end rumble with some eqing, the overall sound actually surprised the crap out of me. I would post a little of it if I had a way to, but I don't so you'll just have to take my word for it. Doing this gave me much much better results, as far as high gain goes, than my podxt. Now I just need a place towhere I can actually get those 120 watts cranked. turned up 1/2 to 3/4 of the way makes my whole house shake, not to mention what my neighbors think.
