Reddit mentions of Two Notes Torpedo C.A.B. Meters Speaker Simulator Pedal

Would you be averse to another multifx pedal? The HX Stomp would likey cover all of your bases for you, including headphone out. For specifically metal, this video goes in depth about how it can be used as an entire signal chain for a guitar. I linked to the timestamp where he starts talking about the stomps.

I can definitely understand wanting individual pedals, though. There's a lot more fun to be had tweaking individual knobs, and a lot less exhausting menu diving like you'd have in a multifx. Also, the HX Stomp is a lot of money to spend for one piece of gear.

For ampless/headphone/travel/direct to board solutions, there are a lot of options now. A few that I know about (all prices in USD):

• Mooer Radar ~$150: One of the first mini pedals to do this sort of thing. Has great reviews, and I don't think you can go wrong with this one.
  
• NUX Mini Studio ~$100: Simpler, more straightforward interface. with just three knobs to set your sound up. It's the mini version of the NUX Solid Studio, which has a LOT more features on it for ~$200.
  
• Hotone Omni IR ~$120: Cab IR loader similar to the Mooer Radar, but with a thru signal, an aux in, and an XLR out. Newer pedal, so not as many reviews and not as much knowledge about any shortcomings, but overall looks to be a great value-for-money option.
  
• Neunaber Iconoclast ~$250: More expensive, but with some more intuitive controls that don't require you to know everything about every speaker cabinet ever made, and also stereo in and out in case you want to get crazy with stereo setups. I've heard nothing but amazing things about this pedal.
  
• Two Notes Torpedo C.A.B ~$400, and Torpedo C.A.B. M ~$300: From my understanding these are "best of breed" meaning they're more boutique and are full of features and quality. I don't know nearly as much about these, so do your research and see if it's worth the extra money to throw down for either of these (I personally don't think it's worth it).
  
  In front of those you may want some sort of a preamp pedal to liven up your sound and get some nice gain staging to push with your distortion pedals/boosts/comp/etc. There are a ton of those, and I can recommend some if you'd like, but I think I've already typed out way too much for one post.
