Probably a stupid question, as this is the first amp I've bought in around 14 years (Line 6 or otherwise), but I just got a used Spider V off Ebay without even knowing there was a Mark II. Just updated the firmware to 2.05 and was wondering if it's now a mark II, as I've read it's essentially a firmware update. I'm only asking since the patch notes given on the updater didn't list anything substantial being added. This could just be because the amp was previously updated (I didn't note what version it was at when I first plugged it into the updater.)
Also, is it normal for the amp to take a few secodns to start up? I never noticed this with other amps I've owned (the last one being a Fender G-Dec.)
