Pretty Darn Good
These are good sounding amp sims, and sound good in a mix. I think that for the price of the bundle, $99 at the time of writing this, you're going to get useful guitar sounds that most folks won't notice are sims.
The real downside to this bundle is having to turn on software monitoring in your DAW to use them while tracking with them. After putting so much into console and having monitoring going through that, you'd think that UA would realise that tracking with software monitoring on is going to mess up a session in most DAWs. So these are really great if you're only recording one track of guitars after everything else, or if you're just noodling around in your DAW instead of using an actual amp.
Hopefully in future update UA sees this and corrects the issue, but other than that I'd say these are on par with most other amp sims on the market, but more budget friendly.

Amazing Amp sims
Those 3 Amps are sounding so verry fantastic.
So realistic and verry easy to handle. With little settings you‘ll get the finest ressults. This is the real tool sounding just like the real thing. I love it.

So Glad I Grabbed The Amp Bundle!
These make it fun and easy to record guitars. I stack them with my pedals from Bias FX and Guitar Rig to get sounds and they play nicely with both. Thanks for practically giving them away this holiday season. Super looking forward to the Enigmatic, The Anti, and the Knuckle VST versions which will probably drop shortly (I am hoping)

Fantastic
I love this plug in, it has such a distinct sound and the room knob is beautiful highly recommend

Great Emulation, not so good accessibility
Love the amp sounds... high five UA! Not happy that the plug ins aren't available in Console in the Unison slot.

UAD = best great plugins
As a big fan of UAD for many years, it's clear that I won't be switching companies. All the plugins are excellent. Very similar if not the same as the originals - hardware BUT at a very affordable cost vs hardware. And it's practical because you can carry it everywhere. Even on a beach in California or named it. An industry standard.

Fender Twin Reverb sound for a song.
I don't often need the Fender Twin sound but, at the price UAD sells this SIM, It is a steal. And, ot sounds identical.

Just misses the Apollo or Unisson feature
Sounds amazingly well. Just doesn't make sense to implement it a native plugin (with latency) when you have a full size racked Apollo. Please update it (and the Ruby and Lion) with the Unisson feature or as an Apollo plugin at least

An improvement over the Softube version
I own the Softube made Marshall Plexi SL plugin too, and my initial impression is that the UAD Lion is a definite improvement over that version. Although I def love the interface on Softube's design, the amp sits front and center with all the dials. Although, the way the rest of the menu is hidden away, kind of takes away a bit from that, and that's where this version from UAD is superior. Though purely cosmetic, I wish that once you select an amp and cab in Lion, that you could bring it front and center in a big way, WITH the cab. There's just something visceral about seeing an amp in front of you...especially a Marshall. I am aware that you can change the size of the entire window of the plugin, but that's not what I mean, I'm talking about a different visual where the rest of the interface disappears, with just the Amp and Cab remaining in all its glorious worn edges and look, with the light on as you use the plugin, and off when you turn it off. And with the possibility of tweaking the dials, without having to fiddle with the rest of the options such as reverb, gate, and even the cab. Another additional interface, albeit, more cosmetic, and less about function. Just the amp/cab in all its black and golden glory!
The most important thing however, is the sound, and there's a def improvement there too. Whereas Softubes version has harsher Treble notes, they cut, but not always in a nice way, and you can get that on this UAD too, but I like that the icy sharp highs can be managed better here, none the least for the addition of the BOOSTERS which allow you to shape the sound even more. That's a BIG bonus with Lion. It's like getting extra pedals free! From UAD especially, that's more bonus points for them.
The cabs in Lion have been whittled down to a few good options, including going direct, which is also an improvement over Softube which has a huge amount of other cabs, but only as options from a drop down menu. You don't actually always know what the actual difference is, you just have to go by your ears, which takes forever with 99 options. That's where I like this far more focused option from UAD Lion. This adds to the sense of realism as well.
Overall I wanted to give it 4.5 stars, but they're getting 5 since I don't see an option for halves. Really great plugin, I may have to go for the Ruby now...

Ruby needs Unison 63+
Fast and simple to use for workhorse guitar sounds. Easy to keep in the track for adjustments when mixing. There should be a Unison version included.

Lion needs Unison 68+
Fast and simple to use for clean and crunchy guitar sounds. Easy to keep in the track for adjustments when mixing. There should be a Unison version included.

Dream of Unison version 65+
Fast and simple to use for decent guitar sounds. Easy to keep in the track for adjustments when mixing. There should be a Unison version included.

Great Amp Plugins!
The Ruby 63, Lion 68, and Dream 65 plugins are worth your time and money. I am running them in Logic Pro X on a MacBook Air M1 2020 model; I found the tweaks to each nicely done and not overly complex to get the sounds I wanted. I look forward to recording some more with them in the future.

good
very realistic!

Completely useless as a tracking plugin
It cannot be added to a Unison slot, so the latency with record monitoring is super high, even with the lowest buffer size (32). Too bad. If it would have a standalone version it would make sense, but this way it's useless for tracking.

I finally bought the hardware version
Very good sounding plug-in. Unfortunately only native and not for Unison. I finally decided to buy the hardware version of the Dream 65.
