just a general questions thread for people who have stupid/simple questions that most others could answer. I figured this can be an easy place to ask rather than creating new threads or posting in existing old ones hoping somebody will answer.
I'll start off: Can you power the faye sing with a one spot? I know it's a tricky pedal to power and I just didn't want to fuck anything up.

From INFANEM website:
◦Standard Boss-style 2.1mm 9VDC input, negative tip. Current draw is approximately 150mA.
So... yes.

Re: The stupid questions thread
it IS a bugaboo to power sometimes though. i have the best luck keeping it on a high mA (like 400) at a higher voltage through a Cioks or PP2. Ken always says he gets them to work fine with a One Spot, i've had problems with adapters that are the same specs as a Oner. but it is WORTH it. i'm a huge fan of that bugger.

Re: The stupid questions thread
Related: When I power my Boss PH-2 on the Pedal Power ISO-5 (with isolated power) it seems to...not work as well. The LED is super dim when the pedal is engaged, and it just doesn't sound as pronounced as when I run it on a One-Spot. Then all is fine. Why would that be?

A stupid question to your stupid question, I just have to check? You have it connected to the right voltage outlet?

Indeed. I keep the 18v one unused if I have no pedals for it, just to be safe.

Okay seriously stupid question. SERIOUSLY.
I have no clue about the whole Head + Cabinet thing. The Cabinet is just speakers? Does the Head make any sound? Can you just play through a Cabinet?

Re: The stupid questions thread
naw. not really dumb if you've always used rackmount stuff.
head = preamp and poweramp in one box.
cabinet = speakers in an enclosure.
combo = all in one box, head and cabinet in one solid piece.
like, i run a Rusty Box -> QSC GX-5 -> Aggy GS212. they COULD make a head that's all of the Rusty (preamp) joined into one unit (giggety) with a poweramp. or make a head out of the poweramp and join in a speaker and have a combo.
i like modular setups, so heads and combos never made much sense to me.

The cabinet is the box with all your speakers. The head is what amplifies whatever signal you're running through it and outputs it to the cabinet. But without a cab (speakers) connected to it, you're not gonna hear anything. And your head will probably not be very happy.
Maybe you could play through a cabinet alone by using a Blowing Up boost or something...I guess it would have to be a really hot signal for you to hear anything coming outta the speaker(s).
A combo amp is the head + cab consolidated into one box.
I use "amp" to describe the full setup of both head + cab. "Head" is always the head for me.
