TR35B & TR120B - channel jumping?

Post by kennyhowes »

I have one of each of these amps. If I wanted to run one* instrument through both amps simultaneously, shy of getting a splitter box, would I run a jumper from one amp's input to the input of the other? What are the options?

* Non-Rick-O-Sound. That of course is another option. For the sake of this let's say it's a regular mono-output instrument.

I take it these amps have two inputs going to the channel? If they are like those on Fender amps, for example, yes, you can take the second input and run a cable from it to the other amp's input.

Yep, two inputs on each amp. Also pre-amp in and out jacks.

If you only need one set of tone controls then you could go from the pre out of one amp into the power amp in on the other; this way you only have to deal with one volume control, too. I'd try both ways and see what flies for you.
