I have had my Spider V head for a little over a year, along with the matching 4x12 cab.  Last night, I disconnected the cab and was using the head as a practice amp with the built-in speakers, and one of them appears to be blown.  I live in an apartment, so have never had this amplifier at a high volume.  I no longer have my purchase receipt.  It appears to be a 4" 16-ohm speaker, but I cannot seem to find any online that match that I can use, and without my receipt, I don't think Line 6 will help me with warranty.  Does anyone have any suggestions what I can do?

OK, good question.  I checked the manuals and this is not actually covered like it is for the HD series.  However, Line 6 customarily uses the left output to sum to mono and this is most likely the case here too.  Just run straight from the left out to the amp.

 

Another option is to use a mono effect last in your chain.  That way the exact same signal will be on both the right and left output and you can go straight into your amp front end.  You may want to consider setting the output to Combo Front as that will give you a special global EQ option to compensate for any coloring your amp adds to the tone.

 

You could also get adapters to either combine the 1/4 outs or take the headphone signal to mono 1/4 inch.  Y cables are not necessarily the best choice though as you may find by researching it. I would choose the other options myself.

 

Have fun!   :)

OK, so how exactly do I set the output to "combo front"  I don't see any place to change output type.

I have the POD HD Desktop unit and am trying to find the best way to connect it to my amp, which is a Marshall MSII mini stack.

The only ways I have come up with is to connect a guitar cable from the headphone out of the POD to the input on the amp, or to connect either the left or right outputs on the POD to the input on the amp.  Either way will logically only give me one side of the signal path, since guitat cables (and the input on the amp as well) are mono.

Is there a way to combine the two signal paths into a true mono output, or am I stuck with only getting the single-sided signal?

Which cable method is the best to use? 

NOTE: This amp DOES NOT have an effects loop send/return!

Thanks for any advice!
