Thanks in advance .I did this by accident too many cables .so here goes I have a 60watt Dean Markley Cd 60 tube amp that sounds great with two inputs guitar is in low I ran a cable from the hi side to a Peavy Bandit 65 solid state low input with out thinking the sound from this combo is incredible deep warm lows great tube crunch and the highs cut like a knife .my question is am i doing damage to the amps transformers ? the Dean has a power amp in and send with level controls on the back but it is no where near the sound I am getting now .so does the peavy

kn, Hey, give a guy some time to read the mail, eh? ;D 2¾ hours isn't very long, and we're only a few hundred members here, ya know?  If you're doing it as I think you are, then yes, there will be no damage of any sort. All you've really done is to use the two input jacks as sort of a "splitter" for your single guitar cord. It's the same as if you'd gone into an A/B/Y box, and chosen to use both A and B at the same time. As for using the Line out to feed the input of another amp, that's not a good idea. There might or might not be damage, but it certainly won't sound so good. However, as far as damage/no damage goes, you can also go from Line Out on one amp to Line In on the other amp. (These labels are the same as PreAmp Out and Power In.) Doing this means that you need twist only one volume knob (on the first amp), but you lose the extra tone controls of the second amp. Probably best to stick with what you know is safe, and sounds best to your ears!  HTH sumgai |

Sum thanks for the info .but the 2 hr thing is more like a day later but thanks anyway.I do like having daul controls over the sound I can taylor each guitar I have .You ever try THD yellow jackets ? I'm thinking about getting some to kind of tame this beast alittle 84's instead of 6l6's droppig the power down to around 30 watts for more tube crunch at lower volumes

knuckledragger, I have no opinion on these things, I've never seen 'em, nor to the best of my knowledge, have I ever heard any guitarists play through a set of them. Sorry I couldn't be of more help on this one.  sumgai |
