Those sound almost uniformly atrocious.

The real secret to the SansAmp is its subtle attention to EQ, not its distortion, which is more or less based on the notorious Furman accidental distortion artifact in their EQ in the '70s which they subsequently corrected.

It's great for quick tone-shaping (incredible job of putting some life, depth and immediacy in flats, for example), but I just don't get the distortion part.
