    This terrible head ...!

    All lamps 100W ... 4 amplification and 2 preamplifier. 4 channel pedal with "classic" which includes a pedal volume / expression and up to 32 with the model "top".
    Modeling amps and effects bluff that made the reputation of the brand.
    Quick loop a great place to get a riff or a solo beat.
    Connectivity: you can connect speakers with 4, 8 or 16 ohms mono or stereo so really possible configurations and connecting a multi-effect pedal or a series between the preamp and amp ... much better ... a parallel effects loop with a mixer!

    UTILIZATION

    Configuration and its research is really intuitive like many brand products. There are some settings that can be sharper in effect menus for perfectionists but overall, we made it fairly quickly without watching too much notice. The manual is correct but more comprehensive download at line 6.

    SOUNDS

    I play rock / punk rock and metal with a LTD EC1000 Deluxe with EMG active c and hot, powerful, incisive in its ... I love everything! With clear sound, the sound is incredibly warm and crystalline desire!
    However we do not believe that rock with the head: the range of the number of possibilities is enormous beads of her! Just feel a little different modeling and effects to realize.
    Whatever style you want, from one extreme to the other, I would say one word: versatility!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it since October 2011 and no problem with ... This is truly a professional!
    The expertise of an engineer head lamps associated to that line 6 has digital modeling guitar amplifier (besides all brands, even the most prestigious copied the concept) make this head is a wonder in all styles: versatility, power and sound quality ...... Everything is there!
    Finally, I thought a lot and waited to buy me a big fat head lamp and then, frankly, I have never once regretted my purchase!

    UTILIZATION

    config very simple if only one am a regular product line 6's in the bag it is very easy to get a good sound dasn any simulation that thesis but it is not easy to find ITS a lot of work to do over the <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="" /> Matete for the manual was delivered without <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_cry.gif" alt="" />

    SOUNDS

    I play metal, neo metal and anything that makes noise but also the blues and stuff really clean so big in Pepere versatility of the amp (for the overdrive is not quite that by against) the only clear are not as crystal-clear, but a fender is a good level, the Satus are too monstrous even (insane too rough for my taste given the excess of gain) with large pallets sound effects although it is not to possivble SETTINGS fairly extreme (a la Korn) on the phaser example

    OVERALL OPINION

    I had almost every product in our line 6 (pod, HD147, POD X3, hd 100 spider valve, micro spider) and is by far the best fishing the big lights in the service of modeling, I think it is the future this type of amp big evolution from the first spider valve (I changed it because he had not sufficient effect <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_cry.gif" alt="" /> ) Bought new 779 euros in a nimes broc n roll (yes - expensive than on the net!) The price / quality ratio is excellent I utiise for over a week, not yet tested in repeats I will modify the opinion after the test are fishing a big + max big effects modular bcp opportunities to look - too much power for one home game (I think it is better to take his little brother combo 40 watts) of certain qualities effects (phaser) ps overdrive lack of cream, for those wondering if it works with the old shortboard there are no worries its march niquel! <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="" /> saturation insane just rotten to my taste if you have any questions do not hesitate
    edit 30/12/09 I remove one of the stars poru reliability down over a set I still not repaired! : (

    I just got the head .....
    I had prior to the HD147, I also have an X3 live

    I connect, I went around pallets sounds, and it is the slap, that's very good, I'm a bit on the ass side made! is ideal for me (I also have a Marshall all-tube) so the digital side and lamp since I master, and I will not go into this debate

    there are heat lamps is undeniable, the side effects do not alter the sound quality, quite the contrary, I tried it on a 4x12 Marshall (lead 1960A) and a marshall 4x10

    I confirm that the FBV shortboard pedal (old) works with your head!

    Send it serious (too much for home and studio to repeat) I will have to make presets with different levels based on where I play .. is not the most "boring"

    I would put another comment on the use and adjustment (soft) when I tried

    In summary, I think I finally found my amp!
    is to make him a rack for transport

    UTILIZATION

    no big manual that came with the head,,,,

    it is fairly intuitive as adjusting! with the screen available <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_lol.gif" alt="" />

    you turn the knobs and it sounds! I am quite familiar Line6 so I'm not lost, you still have an ear, because even with a simple little pedal boss you have a sound rule of shit if you like an idiot!! is still a minimum of musical perception

    SOUNDS

    I play in several groups!

    I connect over my gibson and my Fender Stratocaster, the head appears much difference in the two scratches! its clear and its "drive"

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for some days .... I will continue to fiddle with the beast to see what it was in the belly
    side price! I understand how they can sell it so cheap? Bogner rest of it! and sending it in terms of quality (I touch nothing to say that)

    Not too bad for the price

    When I first heard this amp I was a bit skeptical but to my surprise it sounded pretty good. The 1x12 sounds terrible and the 2x12 sounds a bit better and this was was a hit.

    Finally Line 6 got the idea...they cannot make a decent distortion tone. So they went out an found probably the best man who could create one. Reinhold Bogner has been building amps for over 20+ years now and creating some the best amplifiers in the world. Professionals around the world turn to Bogner to get their tonal needs.

    SOUNDS

    I was at an amp festival when I first heard this amp and Reinhold Bogner was there telling us to listen to this amp and everyone thought he was joking because we know how Line 6 amps sound. They fired it up and it was a big surprise to hear how good this thing did sound. We tested it with a Gibson Les Paul and a Fender Telecatser and each guitar having its own personalty sounded very god through the Bogner cabinet.

    OVERALL OPINION

    If you are someone who needs solid sounding high gain amplifier with the ability to have multiple effects to go with it this is the amp for you. Having tubes coupled with the digital processors makes this thing a beast of a guitar tool.

    At new these amps come in at around $900, not a bad price for something that was designed by Reinhold and mixed with the processing power of Line 6.
