What is a reactive load box?
To play your amplifier without a speaker, you need a load box, also known as a Reactive Loadbox. This box uses reactive technology, meaning it perfectly mimics the impedance of a speaker. Your amplifier will believe it is connected to a real speaker cabinet. Two notes is renowned for manufacturing load boxes that are among the most accurate and feature-rich in the world.
