Whoaaa No Way!!!
It's so funny how people's opinions on FRFR differ so wildly. My first FRFR setup with a QSC K-something on stands that I used with my AxeFX Ultra. It was expensive AF and it just sounded like a super HiFi PA system to me. Did not replicate an actual guitars' tone very well unless you were actually looking for that mic'd sound. I wanted the cab sound. I ended up selling the AxeFX setup since I was never satisfied with the live sound vs a real amp.
Years later, I bought an Alto TS112A because I'd heard great things and they were cheap. I think I had a Kemper at the time, could've been an AxeFX 2? I had the same opinions with it as the QSC setup, but I kept it much longer because it was way cheaper and I didn't feel like it was wasted money for the tone I was getting. I ended up selling both of those modelers but kept it as a small vocal PA until I got my FM3 a couple of years ago.
I didn't care for the Alto with the FM3 at all. I much preferred my EHX 22 Caliber into a small Ampeg 1x12 with a V30. I also bought a PowerCab 112+ around the same time and liked it as well. It wasn't as good as the real cab setup, but I could play bass through it and it was way louder.
Haven't tried the Fender ones but I've heard good things. I have an HX Stomp now but I don't use it for modeling, I haven't felt the need when I have several great amps.
