I was wrong, the guitar to amp latency at 1 meter away is roughly 3 ms.

The accumulation of a monitors and an effect or two gets you to 8ms. Acceptable 
latency is 12 ms.

Again, I haven't measured my rig or the latency of my old wearable rig, both 
both were responsive to me, so they must e at least around 12 ms.

Sorry for being unscientific about it.
