@mikedc -        When you heard that painful woofer sound, during the organ music, was your source vinyl?         Asking because: subsonics, caused by stylus travel (ie: record warp, arm/cart resonance, etc) will often cause woofer over-travel a...

Can I connect a DC power supply to Line 6 Micro Spider with AC "port"?

Can I connect a DC power supply to Line 6 Micro Spider with AC "port"?
@amelio -           Your amp only has one power supply port, designed to take the OUTPUT* plug of a wall wart AC/DC converter (ie: the PX-2g).            The, "AC IN" labeling is an error and the company should made aware of THEIR confusion (AS ...

"You don’t HAVE to read the garbage these people put out. Measurements don’t work on cables. Period. Many say they don’t work on anything else either. So if you believe a particular cable might give a better sound FOR YOU, then you will have to ...
