I was making a mix OTB and made a very newbie mistake by creating a feedback loop. High pitch horrible noise came out of my speakers for 3 sec before I put the mute on. There was crazy clipping on the Line Input channels where the mix was routing back in...Did I toast my converter, or my speakers, or both? To my ears, everything sounded fine...But could I have damaged these said equipment? This thought had kept me up at night:(. Your input would be much appreciated!

If everything sounds fine, then you most likely didn't damage it. Always gotta watch out for those loops ;)
 
I blow the tweeters in my monitors by doing just that (they were my old ones not what I use now). You can hear it as the monitors have no highs anymore. If they sound all right you got away with it.

If your not spitting out pieces of your tweeter domes then your ok.
 
Did the warp converters overload the linear phase conduits? you can tell by checking if the override junctions are fused.
