Effects loop level

I recently tried my stomp boxes in my amp's effects loop and they really, really didn't like it. I mentioned it on here and someone said that it might be because of the line level output on the effects loop. Today (I've had the damned thing for over 15 years!), while browsing the amp's manual, I discovered that there is a high/low switch for the effects loop.

[quote]EFX LEVEL SWITCH (33)
Selects the effects loop operating level: -10 dBV (3 V RMS) when in low position and 0 dBV (1 V RMS) when in
high position.[/quote]

Does this mean that if I set it to low the pedals might stand a better chance? I know the difference between instrument and line level, in as much as I know there's a difference, I just don't know what the numbers are.

I know I should just try it but getting at the back of the amp and setting it all up is a bit of a chore.
