line6 spider amp opinions

Any opinions on the line6 spider & or flextone amps? I'm in a cover band and need to get alot of different tones -- especially the current rock tones ie; staind,creed,live,3doors down--- that kinda stuff.
Do these amps hold up well or is there another recommendation?
thanx

Actually,Line 6 has just come out with the Spider II series of amps.You could get a 2x12 Spider II combo for around $500 or a head for around $400.Theres also a 2x10 and a 1x12 combo too I think.Line 6 stuff is reliable from what ive seen and for the price,you can't do much better.The flextones are a bit overpriced and arnt worth the extra money over the spider II's in my opinion.
They look sick too.

Later! \m/

I have been a true blue tube amp man for well over 20 years now, but I must say that I am very impressed with the sound of the Line 6 stuff. I think it is as close to a tube sound as you can get from something that doesn't have a single tube in it. Check out some of the sound samples on the Line 6 website. Those Spider II's are a big upgrade from the original Spider series, and the II's are less money than the original.
