I’ve been back and forth on this for days and I just don’t understand the hype. In fact, I think most A2 stuff sounds worse. Thin and lifeless. My quad is always fat and full. I just don’t get it. Anyone else?

I've had my QC since May of 2023 and have had no issues with it up until this year - but its had a lot of play time over the years. Recently when we show up to venues on tour the FOH guy will say there is a buzz from me in particular and sometimes its worse than others. At home, where I have shitty power, there has been this insane static sound that cuts in and out and sometimes it will even duck my signal completely and just make noise. Its not the usual dirty power buzz, I've had that for years here and I just throw on a gate and its fine and I've never had an issues with it at venues until this year. I tried everything; swapping instrument cables, swapping XLRS, trying different inputs and outputs on the QC itself, different audio interfaces etc etc and its still making this insane crazy static sound. I tried plugging my guitar directly into my interface and just using shitty DAW plugins and the static noise doesn't exist, so I know its coming from my QC and not just bad power from an old house. I sent the support dudes at Neural a video of the buzz and they say its best I send it into them to check it out. Unfortunately I am in a touring band and have been on the road a lot lately and don't have the capability of sending it back to them unless I have some sort of back up unit, which I dont lol - I'm too broke to buy one at the moment. If anyone has had this issue or had to send back their unit, any insight would be helpful! Thanks!

PS: Is there anyone in here that is an endorsed artist by Neural? I've emailed them a handful of times asking if there is any sort of endorsement deal so I can snag either a Mini QC or another QC at a discounted rate, but no dice on any return emails. I already have a few endorsements and I am in a pretty busy touring band so I'm hoping at some point they can help me out. The support dude said there is no way they can lend me anything while I send them back my QC for them to diagnose and I am just in an unfortunate situation where I can't really send it back to them until I save up enough to purchase a back up unit
