Truk_Nielleg Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Hello, I am a proud owner of a Spider 2 212 amp. I want to upgrade to the newer Spider V 240 HC, and am considering a Head/Cab. however I am wondering if I can just get the Head for now and use my current combo amp as cabinet? has anyone tried this?

bobcoss Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I have the spider V 240hc and I'm using it on an old Peavey 412 cabinet . I think it sounds fine. I never got around to purchasing the official 4x12 cabinet. The great thing about the Spider V 240HC is that you don't need to plug it into a cabinet to get great sound. I don't think you need to rush out and get the Spider V cabinet. To use your 212 combo as a cabinet, you will have to rig up a connector to the back 240hc. One speaker for each output. I don't think that is going to work very well. If you are wanting to capitalize on stereo effects. Consider two 2x12 cabinets so you can get some separation. Stereo effects in a 4x12 cabinet are kind of a useless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
