RE-ACT™ Load box
Keep your amp tone intact

As the output of your amp increases, your speaker reaction changes because of nuances within speaker impedance. The Two notes Reactive-Active Technology (RE-ACT™) gives your amplifier a consistent speaker impedance that makes the amp behave as if it was plugged into a real speaker / cabinet, at any attenuation setting.

CONTOUR KNOB
HUGE GUITAR TONES AT LOW VOLUME

Playing loud comes with the sensation of a bold, powerful tone that feels like your are standing in front a wall of sound. The Contour control mimics the reactive sensation of your amp when using Reload’s attenuator. The Contour control allows huge guitar tones from the amp, at sensible volume levels.

WALL OF SOUND INCLUDED

This product comes with a lifetime licence for the Torpedo Wall of Sound plug-in.

Frequently asked questions
Torpedo Reload

What is the primary difference between the Torpedo Captor and the Torpedo Reload?
The Torpedo Captor is a passive attenuator and does not require a power supply when used solely as an attenuator. It features a simple, non-adjustable attenuated output (ATT). A power supply (or phantom power) is only required when using the XLR DI output. The Torpedo Reload attenuator is active (requires power) and has a continuously adjustable attenuated output (zero to full). The Reload also features a full set of re-amping tools.

Differences between the Captor and the Reload – full article.

Can I mismatch the impedance of the Torpedo Reload and my amp / speaker?
There is not a general rule but it is widely accepted that a small mismatch is not a problem if you keep the amp at a low level.

WARNING Before mismatching impedances – please read this article.

Can I use an amp more powerful than the rated power of the Torpedo Reload?
Please note the published ratings of amplifiers do not follow a uniform pattern. For example, some tube amps (mostly vintage or from vintage inspiration) can output more power than advertised. This is because some manufacturers give power ratings for the amp played clean and it is not uncommon to see a 120W vintage non-master volume and/or single channel tube amp outputting up to 200W when cranked up to max.

If your amplifier outputs more than 100W RMS, discover how to protect your amp when using a Torpedo Reload in this article.

What is a load box?
The term that describes a speaker cabinet with respect to the amplifier is the “load” and when using a tube amplifier, you should always connect to a speaker cabinet or “load”. The embedded load in the Torpedo Reload is reactive and it simulates the complex impedance of a real speaker. Unlike traditional resistive loads, the Torpedo Reload reactive load feels like you are still connected to a cabinet, retaining the warmth and dynamics of your amplifier. The reactive load takes the place of your speaker cabinet in your signal chain.

To find out more about reactive load box technology and caring for your amp when using a load box, please read this article.

What is RE-ACT technology?
RE-ACT is short for “Reactive-Active Attenuator”. If you really want to nerd out, and find out why this makes the Torpedo Reload the most useable attenuator, please read this article.

Is the Torpedo Reload 100% analog?
The Torpedo Reload is 100% analog.

Does the Torpedo Reload have cab sim?
There is no cabinet emulation within the Torpedo Reload. You would need to use a software product like the Torpedo Wall of Sound or a stand alone hardware unit like the Torpedo C.A.B. M+.
