Additionally, the amps offer the option to select between classic and full range speaker sims—Classic Speaker mode provides more organic and authentic amp-to-speaker tones, while Full-Range Speaker mode is optimal for acoustic guitars and jam track playback.

All Spider V amps from the 60 MkII up also include built-in wireless receivers that pair with the optional Relay G10T wireless transmitter (or other Line 6 RF2 transmitter). The Spider V 120 MkII, Spider V 240 MkII and Spider V 240HC MkII, meanwhile, feature stereo XLR direct outputs for easy connection to a mixer or sound system.
