    UTILIZATION

    Config ultra simple, not need the manual except for hidden features (noise gate and stomp I was not able to activate this compare to the manual).
    The presets are nice contrary to what I read on the forums, but the large hearts is to get his sound, which requires a little patience and tamper ds settings (equalizer and effects).
    However if you want to start right away, necessarily found happiness among the 400 presets provided by fiddling a little adjustments.
    Another point, high-volume, I have a flying v and Excalibur, there is no concern for sound equalization is not at all écresé as some casual fans, even with high-power microwave The EQ is quite effective if there are too low, it is not a problem that was quickly corrected.
    I used this head on stage and I had an excellent who did not lose in accuracy or in acute without seeming completely compressed, not the sound does not collapse when the beast is set (but it takes a little patience and reflection), the proof is, I played with a ibanez universe 7 string and the amp did not budge on the low frequencies on the other hand for a clear case ds must choose the first step modeling and not the blues of course.

    SOUNDS

    Amp clearly oriented metal crunch of the simus up insane are monstrous and full of life (you can almost hear the heat lamps, it is amazing, but there is this little qd same side which makes synthetic sound Line 6).
    The sound of the guitar is fully respected, I play on paul black beauty, Vigier Excalibur, and strat flyng v and did my settings for each scratch.
    With it's red metal amp Dual Rectifier, I had one and I am amazed, ca is good modeling but it is what makes the Line 6 I repeat, for a good big sound rhythm to Messhugah must spend some time to take the lead but the result is there and right there ........... mama mia !!!!!!!!!!!

    In hidden command can trigger a stomp which provides more grain but I'm not a fan because the ultra sound is less accurate and drool too much.
    In terms of effects, nothing to say, it's line 6 and it seems to have pedals on the floor, just a little critical of the reverb that I find a little synthetic and difficult to master, but well c is also a matter of taste.

    At clean sounds, no problem, there is a choice mode blues I feel like I have a twin on the ground and the fact that serious postion red, green is the position of a modeling vox ac 30 but it is not my cup of tea I prefer crispy crunchy distortion in position to marshall crunch red and green, it's really stunning.

    OVERALL OPINION

    J'utile the head for one month with a 4x12 cabinet line 6.
    I played on Marshall, Boogie I had a lot of amps in the studio I'm working on a pod xt and it is natural for the scene and I turned again to the spiderIII.
    I am an absolute fan of Line 6's because there's really a line 6, in 20 years I finally guitar sound I want and when I think ca m'hallucine again and yes it is the first Once I have a really good compromise between the lamps and transistors Hallelujah ............
    Despite qqs problems as knowledge or is in the settings (the black dot, and yes it should be noted on paper the settings for each preset if vs vs want to remember in case you erase the memory), a reverb just average and no switch (but hey ... for the price) this head is the dream for any musician looking for some versatility.
    Here is my opinion, I would do 1000 times this choice with his eyes closed even if line 6 is abusing a little on the price of a shortboard!
    Last, contrairemnt to some, I say that this amp is definitely not an amp for beginner who wants to play it, on the contrary, we must have some experience to use it in perfect harmony with each guitar In fact it will never sound crisp and clear with a flying mode and the amp blues .......... a little common sense is actually needed to gain full capacity of the beast.

    UTILIZATION

    Factory patches are quite insignificant as usual on this type of machine with mostly large diffirences dynamics and volume. This edition is the quick and easy, you get sound without drinking too much. The possibilities in terms of managing the effects are but Reduces we know in advance. No need to book.

    Note incohrences few red and a little bxs for swapping the locations of the patches or their copies, but it is relatively minor and do not stray too use. The volume of patches SETTING THE dcevant sometimes it seems not to have a great progressiv and grading levels between DIFFERENT sounds is not easy.

    SOUNDS

    So good, at first it is quite enjoyable surprise for several reasons:

    - Nice clean sounds
    - Distos convincing
    - Single effects but good bills

    L o singulirment is complicated is when you begin playing average sound level (master noon). This head has a big default of most of the amps using it numrique bottom of the rev wrong digr frquences low. With a scraper high output is the end of the beans when a big slap in the clear agreements associated with an echo effect or parts palm mutes. The sound s'crase easily learned with a parasite settles ds distortion bass that are too rich. Can not be corrected by the qualisation.

    Abnormal to me so quickly to find the limits of the sound bcanne even if my Flying V did not help the living. But I use the Line 6 4x12 cabinet tration SPECIFICATIONS prvu for her.

    OVERALL OPINION

    - How long have you use it? I use it for 2 months posse down to the last entrenchment.

    - What is the particular feature you like best and least? I like its ease of use and the total lack of breath. I dtest lack of safe and sound grate incapacit wide spectrum.

    - Have you tried many other models before acqurir? I have a great chance to rpter in a music store I therefore appropriate to take all the time Necessary for testing hardware background. I jou on a package of stuff in my life is ... sr

    - How do you report qualitprix? average ratio in the absence of the footswitch! pluttddi gear to beginners wanting to look a body double to play Dad in the room while the mother made her FRRO Lons lollll

    - With the exprience, you do again this choice? I usually play on my lights and amps t surprised at first by much. At the rflexion I think it's a product "just fashion" but not really effective.

    The sound I got talking to me very simply the sounds that I ais demand that is to say a big distortion. if the sounds so clear very well the amp is very well adjusted after it's just pofinage.

    the manual very common but I have found comprhensible.

    SOUNDS

    I am more mtal hard rock I like it frankly is easily obtained and it is his acvec some pRSET dja recorded the style acdc slipknot ozzy ozborne simpa I find even more to play what.

    I play with my wahburn OX20 pedals I was using a digitech grunge for my 15W line6 but for me it is absolutely worthless so I kept it for the 15W.

    prfr it sounds to me how insane the way red and green with mtal a bit of reverb.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use 2 depui 3semaine jadore truly versatile sound level but I prefer the sound distortion which it is truly magnificent.

    a 100W marshall ibanez my harley benton a 15W 80W 15W and a peavey

    The report price is not bad quality but hey let a certain effect can adsir.

    with exprience in therm of modlisation I would do if not in theme to choose from a head lamp I turn to Rivera.

    No MIDI input / output for export / import / edit presets via PC, so all your rglagles, you can note a one on scraps of paper, if you want to change the order of your presets.

    UTILIZATION

    Simple configuration but not prcise trs. Button too quickly master increases from 10 to 12 hours, which corresponds to the average volume gnral yet used in RPET. Rsultat? You play too hard or not enough. The effects do not paramtres except for the assay.
    However, given the short paramtres ditables, we can say that the configuration is simple.

    SOUNDS

    So the black is really the point ...
    If you do mtal imprcis (there), and you are looking for just power, you may find your happiness.
    Do not think even not use clean sounds. They flatten compltement the dynamics of your guitar, they are not warm and lacking in color.
    Saturation is also lgre trs fake. The reverb is really average.
    I also possde a pdalier FBV floorboard to use in concert. Well, no point was anything either. Why?
    If you want a sound to another, there is a white (cut) in the passage of one another and can be heard as a. Be careful, I can understand what phnomne if you switch from one type to another amp (this ncessite programming changes). But if you stick to one type of amp and want to record multiple SETTING THE DIFFERENT gain (clean, crunch, distortion, etc.) on the memory slots, and many do not think have the m rsultat me with a footswitch traditional channel on any amp. Each preset change causes a break making it impossible to use the pdalier live and in concert amp.
    Finally, Line 6 highlights the pdalier boost switch to increase the gain (as a stompbox). Forget it is not adjustable on the amount of gain desired and the level of boost is really too low.
    In short, this amp versatile in advocating the choice of amps and effects will not do you live if you keep the same sound (and therefore the same level of distortion THROUGHOUT THE SONG !!!). Been a guitarist who keeps the same unchanged throughout a song, you. Me, no!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use this amp for almost 3 months now and frankly, I do not advise anyone.
    I m'tais east to Line 6 because I bought a POD 2 for my records and I found the sound quite convincing (I was looking for a good seed, primarily). E Well, the Spider III does not hold a candle from the top of its 700 euros, its small ERRF studio, POD 2, less than 200 euros currently.
    I will also sell it quickly to take something else.
    A tip, buy a lamp or conventional transistor amplifier that comes out a good clean sound, add your Stompboxes prfres and for the same price, I guarantee you'll get an incomparable rsultat .

    Amp modlisation it possde a conection to the switch simple but it can not be quip by the line 6. shame.
    It is a 150 watt amp that has the range and sound effects for the usual line 6.

    UTILIZATION

    The configuration and the manual is really dtail, features caches.
    To get a good sound should be sought, test, (in headphone preferences.).

    SOUNDS

    I play a PRS SE Single Cut agreement Drop B Drop A drop in with a Whammy
    and an Epiphone Les Paul Standard Agreement Drop D.
    The sound is clear and clean trs distos should be good good when rgl but it sounds great.

    - What type of amplification (lamp, transistor ,...)?
    It's a transistor amp
    - What is the power delivered?
    2 x 75 watts. So I never understood why it was sold as a 150 watt, so it delivers 75 watts (stereo certe but good)
    - What connection?
    Big black spot, it is almost nonexistent. Just enough to connect the cab (2 output jacks so), a pedal board ftv style of line 6, an output jack for recording on PC for example (like a pod) and it tout.pas loop effects.
    - What are the settings, effects ...?
    Basic settings, with serious treble and middle.
    We can also adjust the drive.

    Basic settings, with serious treble and middle.
    We can also adjust the drive.
    The effects are just average (delay, chorus and reverb), plus you can not make subtle adjustments, since it does not have encryption or cursor to it, and the race of the knobs is pretty short.
    Cons side by distortion is a real killer!

    UTILIZATION

    - The configuration is simple?
    Even very simple. Was included in 5 minutes.
    - Do you get easily a good sound?
    It depends on the register. The distos, it's madness. Frankly, it rocks seriously. on the other hand still need a little push to reveal the power of the speakers.
    If low volume is fine too.
    - The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
    Yes, enough for everything is very simple.

    SOUNDS

    - Will it fit your style of music?
    Yes quite, but the only problem is that I can not push the amp, so I get sound fine, but nothing to do with the amp at least 25 percent.
    Clearly, to have really great sound, push to 1 / 4 power, otherwise you'll just have a very good sound, which is not bad.
    - With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?
    A fender stratocaster american standard, and a Gibson Les Paul Studio.
    - What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "fat ",....)?
    Frankly we get all the sounds you want. But this amp is clearly oriented metal and rock, not by the number of possible sounds (there you can really go from jazz to heavy metal though), but also the quality that is not equal for all styles.
    - What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
    My favorites are all distos really is amazing for the price and the technology used.
    For the rest, I hate it, but it clearly lacks warmth and slamming.

    OVERALL OPINION

    - For how long have you been using it?
    It is now 2 years
    - What thing do you like most/least about it?
    You plug it sounds live, and with the volume pot to drive, we all rock and metal styles in 2 seconds, and it sounds!
    - Did you try many other models before getting this one?
    Not bad amps of all kinds, but frankly, this is the best value for money. I can not say it at exactly the sound of the originals, because I've never tried, but it was a terrible sound, and 10 times cheaper.
    But we must not forget that this amp is for metalheads and rockers. The jazz, forget it.
    - What is your opinion about the value for the price?
    Unbeatable.
    - Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
    Without hesitation.
