retroroach Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Is it possible to run an amp without connecting to a speaker, or will that damage the amp? I want to run the amp with the line out to the desk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliasMooseblaster Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Is your amp valve or SS? If valve, you'll knacker the amp very quickly unless you plug it into either a speaker or dummy load. I think you can get away with it on a SS amp, but there are probably still reasons why it's not recommended... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroroach Posted August 29, 2018 Author Share Posted August 29, 2018 Its SS. I'm still not confident though! Thanks for the input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBS_freak Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 If it's SS, it's fine. If it's valve, you'll need a dummy load. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 The only SS amp that I can think of that can't be run without a load is the Warwick Hellborg amp, all other SS amps are fine. What amp is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
