Depends what you are going for but if you want max color out of them stack all three after the compressor with the compressor output goosed up to offset signal loss from stacking the three.

Now THAT'S an idea! I'll have to try that configuration too.

It's going to be a fun day deciding where to place these in the chain. Last night I briefly demo'd the 2020S at the beginning of the whole chain: bass -> 2020S -> tuner and really liked it there. Any other placement suggestions?

I would probably start off by trying one 23fe+ after the para-eq, the other after the comp, and the 2020s after the low rider.
You’ve got a lot of options to experiment with with that set up!

Could they improve on that already impressive board?

They're nice for absorbing gain, so maybe after the drive?

To my ear the various LBA transformers add a nice touch of spice or flavor like adding the right pinch to a dish, you might not taste it but you miss it when not there.
So far I have one of each the different offerings and constantly have them in play.
