Great vid as per usual Mr Thorn, I love your disciplined passion. Is there anything that Radial don't do, definite problem solvers as you say. Please forgive me if I'm wrong but I recall seeing a very well rack mounted box at the top of your very impressive Head cabinet, is this a similar product to topic, what actually is it? And further off point what ever happened to your Rivera RockCrusher Recording? I notice you've kept other attenuators but I cant see the Rivera in your awesome new studio. I need a second attenuator and thinking of trying something different to my RockCrusher (GoldFace), maybe a Weber Mass 200? (I dont do the whole cab sim thang so clean Plexi attenuation is my main concern). Any product suggestions and or tips you could throw my way would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, keep being you and rock on man!

I honestly dont think the g system ever got the correct recognition.

Sort of. There is the Ampete 222 switcher. You can use that in two modes. In the first, it allows you to switch one of two amps into one of two cabs. In stereo mode, though, it sends the guitar input to both amps, connecting amp1 to cab1and amp2 to cab2. You still would need your cab to be custom wired so that you could send to the speakers individually, but that is doable.

Also, for recording; how do you run cable to another room? Just use a super long speaker cable? Does that cause issues like running a long instrument cable?
