these have already been posted in the for sale section as my band is searching for someone to reamp our e.p when we start recording it.

guitar was a Schecter demon 6 FR into a countryman 85 through to my mbox mini.

Basically on a quality scale what would you rate these? do they produce good results?

Just to make it public, I tried a quick reamp with these and had a but of trouble getting a tone I was really happy with. I tried to explain, shit in, shit out. It's impossible to mix them without sounding cheesy to unmixed drums.
 
Since I said (over a week ago) in the other/original thread that I would give them a shot for you, I did. I too really struggled to get something I was happy with. But, I will be brave and post it anyway. There is a weird mid-character. Out of interest, what was the guitar used? I actually preferred a result I got just using 2 of the DI's. Maybe just concentrate on Double-tracking. The quad-tracking really wasn't contributing in a positive way. It just muddied up a bit.

Anyway, here is the quad-tracked sample, just HP/LP:

I may not have got your Kick track in sync with the other drums. You must have exported it from a different starting point unfortunately.
