Bermagui Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I've had a POD 500 for a few years, I am getting a bit over the UI and some of the tones. I current play it through studio monitors and occasionally headphones or a Vox AC30C2 (with amp and cabs off) I've seen a DT25 head and cab come up for sale at a reasonable price near home. I am contemplating flipping the Vox and getting the DT25 (lower volume and all!). My question is, does this seem like a bad idea and a waste of money in 2025 - -would I be better instead of pairing a POD500 and DT25 to just sell my POD and Vox and go Helix LT with monitors?

pianoguyy Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I have a 1953 Guild 12-string A 1975 Delta 88 Royale Before switching to HD500 (2014), I used the same rig for nearly 30 years. I don't think buying/using old anything is a bad idea. As long as it works and serves a purpose. So, the question isn't for us to answer. It is for you: Does the 500 do what you need? Does the Helix do what you need? Do you want to use an amp or monitors? Of course, the monkey wrench in the situation.... The Pod and Helix aren't analog pieces of gear. How much computer music someone makes will make a difference, because the POD isn't doing well with new computers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
