So this is it, no more Line6 guys even trying to settle the thing :-( What i understand is, I either pay a lot of money to fix it or I pay a lot of money for a new one.

they do in many cases... you can get a new board for the xt... it just costs as much as picking up a used one...

and it will only get higher over time, because of the cost of warehousing things that they generally sell few of.

i think line6 should make parts available to the end user in cases where the product is no longer manufactured

the xt is like a computer... an amp is a lot simpler... sorry it's more expensive... doesn't make my statement any less true.

That's a copout response. I too started having this issue today.

My unit has never been any where except for my studio. There are a lot of working musicians on here that spend thousands of hours setting these devices up for their sound.

The beauty of a device like this is its all in one place with less noise etc. if line6 is going to sell musicians on these features only to tax the crap out of them a few years later by making it so stinking hard and expensive to repair anything they offer then I'm done with the brand.

Saying they have not manufactured these things for years is a shameful excuse. My 45year old AMPEG amp that costed me $25 to fix now thats something thats not been manufactured for years. My guitar rig system is at least easier to backup and manage. I create software for a living and line6 monkey is the worst interface and experience I've ever used and it failed so much I had to quit using it.

It's sad the real fix is we've made it so expensive to be repaired then buy a new one. That may work with Apple but this is no Apple device and at least they offer extended warranty.

they haven't sold new XT's in years... its far removed from a manufacturing issue...

nothing lasts forever... you like it... pay the service tech.

Another case, opened it up and had a fiddle but no joy, also attempted to update the flash but can't. This is obviously a manufacturing issue, very dissapointing stuff.

Add another xt live that just stopped working with 3 pedasl lit: amp, stomp, and mod.....and a lit blank screen. the ram test passed. I think they should fix these things..or at least tell their customers how to repair them.. their repair shops are 2 expensive $85.00(first hour) just to look at it, then like $95.00 an hour. that could be a lot of cash really fast): come on Line 6! HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
