Sounds like the DT25 / 50 is a good amp on it's own but the integration with POD HD is really what it's all about. As I read through other posts on this forum I'm surprised there's still a lot of wavering on what settings to use ; pre vs. full models, studio direct vs. stack vs. whatever, cab sims on vs. off . I would have thought this scenario of POD L6 to DT would pretty much be "connect and forget" , everything handled for you except your own personal amp & effect settings, like drive , volume, eq, etc. Still seems a bit of trail and error like when connecting to the front of an amp, or amp loop return, or a PE 60 or a PA etc....But overall, looks like most are satisfied. Thanks again !
