The Line 6 Flextone III XL was the flagship product and is the only Line 6 product I'd own other than the Pod which I have. When combined with a FBV Shortboard, the Flextone III XL mimics a tube amp better than any other modeling amp I have ever used. I also have two Vox modeling amps and they are not as good.
I have been called a tube Nazi many a time in the past and I swore I'd never go transistor but this is the one amp that works as advertised.
I have had Dual Rectifiers, Soldano Hot Hods, SLOs, Marshall Plexi, JTM45, JCM800, Bassmans etc ad infinitim. In a livingroom setup, having an amp that starts instantly and does what you want it to do immediately makes it a lot easier to relax and pick up where you left off.
I'm one of the pioneers that originally modded the Epiphone Valve Junior, Galaxie 10, Vox Valvetronix VT30 and hand made 18 watt Marshall clones.
Go figure I have a Line 6 in my living room
