Anyone own all three of these?

I am curious how they sound at home with a amp. The speakers on my computer are alright but they don't come close to hearing them through headphones.

yep! sure do :mrgreen:

The sparkledrive is closer to channel 1 of the BM pedal minus the clean blend. Actually, it's probably a little bit closer to the zendrive but with a different low pass filter (tone control).

The bd-2 is more 'flat' in the eq... more transparent. Brent was actually wanting a bit of 'roundness' and beef to the tonality where the bd-2 is more even sounding.

I'm getting ready to upload a youtube video of a demo video of the pedal, you might do a search at www.youtube.com/user/wampcat here in about an hour or two.
*edit* here is the link to the pedal on my vox ac-15: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nw5bOcxFahE
