Hi, Skip.
Would you explain how a speaker driven line out (like the one you put in my Kalamazoo) differs, as far as the ultimate sound, from the more common (I think) pure preamp line out?

Speaker-driven line-out

Mark- The line-out I use lets you feed a little signal from the speaker into the PA. Most amps with a line-out feed a little of the preamp signal into the PA.

The speaker-driven circuit is the only way to get the sound (and crunch!) of the output tubes and output transformer into the mix short of actually miking the amp.
