Hello, Marshall forum family.  I just purchased the CODE 100H (head only).  I have a Marshall cabinet with 4x12 MG series, and I hate the sound of this combination! Does anyone have advice for a replacement speaker?

Thank You All

hi there,

i'm pretty new to the whole cabinet with heads mixing and matching, i have only used combo's before and i am wondering about the power output of the code 100H which should be 100 watts if i am correct but the 412 cabinet is rated at 200 watts? so are you kind of limited as to what the cabinet can do or how does the whole power rating work? i ordered the 100H and 412 cab but i just want to be sure i'm not missing out on something bcs the power rating isn't correct

thanks guys!

i want to know if there is a way to use a second cabinet with my 100h head and 4X12 cabinet so i can have a full stack vs. a half stack?

Hi,

I have a code 100H connected to a 4x12 cabinet.  I want to use my Boss ME-80, as I have stored a number of presets.  I have plugged my guitar into the ME-80 and the ME-80 into the input of the amp, however the volume of the amp is significantly decreased, I have turned the ME-80 volume up to max with little affect, I have also turned all the FX on The code 100H off.  The volume is very poor, worse with my Gibson SG, than with my Fender Strat. Is there a better way to set up my ME-80, e,g through the FX loop, and how would I do it.  Would this solve the problem?

Thanks

I researched 1x12 open back vs. closed back vs. ported cabinet guitar cabs. My experiment with my Code 50 amp was to remove the back without unplugging anything so I could here the difference between closed back and completely open back. The amp really came alive with a lot of punch and presence while ridding the boominess that occurs. I removed the power cord socket and cut a square the same size as the speaker. This was an improvement but I liked the complete open back sound better. I then cut the back out more leaving just enough stock to support the existing power cord socket hole and protect the electronics inside the cabinet. I will continue with cosmetics such as painting inside black and/or add a grate for protection. To my ears the amp really came to life open back. I will keep it this way. It is an easy experiment to try without sacrificing anything, just remove the back cover screws and pull the back away. If you hate it you just refasten it and leave it original.

I'm running a Code 100h head through MG 4x12 cabinet. This set up is load at home, but a band rehearsal I can hardly be heard above the drums and bass. 

That's with the patch volumes on 8-9 and master volume around 8-9 also.

Do I need to look at noise gate settings, presence, resonance etc or just put an EQ pedal in front of it?

I've heard others say that they gig regularly with the Code 100 without any issues.

Thanks.

I have a 16 Ohm Orange Cabinet. Isit posible to connect it with teh Marshall Code (8Ohm) without causing damage?

CAN I ADD ANOTHER SPEAKER CABINET TO THE CODE 50

I WOULD LIKE BOTH CABINETS TO PRODUCE SOUND

MAYBE THROUGH THE USB   OR A  PORT OUT  OR A WIFI CONNECTION

ANY IDEAS

Hello!

I just bought a Code 100 head and a cabinet.  I want to use the head in a smaller room to learn more about it, using headphones or a MG15CFR,. Can I plug in the head to the input?  As the cabinet is rather heavy its really hard to move it to another place than my "studio".

I have a code 100 combo and there is an output on the back just like the code 100h. Is it possible to plug the code 100 combo into a speaker cabinet and just use it like the code 100h?

Hello can someone tell me why I have no sound on the cabinet when I plug a headphone on my code? Thanks.

I have seen several Code 412 images posted like a traditional Marshall A model. The Code 412 that came is the angled cabinet that I don't like as much. Is there a different model number/name, or are a lot of companies just posting the wrong picture?

My code-100 code head sounds awesome with 4x12 cabinet for live sound.......... But  living in small quarters I need headphones to work properly..... not happening.. when I plug in headphones I lose sound .........any suggestions ? I shouldn't have to crank up Master volume and Gain and volume knobs to max just to get a muddled sound!!!!! Thanks for you help

Hi!

Has anyone used a Code with a great digital effects processor like zoom g5/g5n, boss gt 10/100 or line 6 pod hd 500? If so, how did you set your amp? I set the natural preamp, marshall 100w power and a 1960x cabinet but it didn't sound great.

Hello guitar players,

today I got my new Code 100 head and connected it with my 2x12 speaker 1936 from marshall. I tried the presets and they sound very cool but the sound is in my opinion a little bit to muffled and not clear enough.

So I kicked out the cabinet in the settings and then the sound is very clear and cool for me. But whats exactly the sense of the cab when it sounds not good in my opinion. Do I really need them?

Thanks for your answers! :)

Does the 100c have the capability to run a second 2x12 cabinet? It surely has enough power since the head is also 100 watts.

not a question, but I just got a switched 1/4 female jack and a 1 hole can to put in the back of my code 50 to allow me to connect it to a 4ohm external cabinet - like a Raven RG412.  I will post pictures after I do it.

1) CODE 50 occasionally locks up when changing speaker cabinets (no sound). Must reboot.

2) sound gets progressively "muddy" when tweaking controls. Must reboot to get the sound back.

3) Cannot update: CODE connects to PC, but app generates error saying it cannot get information from the CODE.
