tuato 0 Posted March 2, 2016 Hi all, maybe i'm gonna ask some stupid thing but.... can i use the pod xt as preamplifier connecting it directly to the marshall cabinet, and avoiding the marshall head?? i don't know............if the pod sounds through the headphones and they have no amplifier, why shouldn't work with the cabinet?? Please, don't crucify me ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicr 0 Posted March 5, 2016 philm is spot on but if you plug your POD into the fx return of your amplifier, that should bypass the preamp section and give you the sound youre looking for yo :D . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
