DAMMAGE???? theres no dammage i only have 2 amps but im gona get more inputs and i was just playing with my amps pluged in to the box i made and theres no dammage u gusy r messin with me

Greg_L said:did you check the polarity of each input? any variance by as much as 1.21 jigowatts will result in arcing across the terminals and the flux capacitor in your amps head will go bye-bye. seriously. ive seen it happen.
TragikRemix said:marvelous point!
in addition, to power the flux capacitors in the amplfication stage of the amplifier, it is best to use unprocessed electricity created from the nuclear decomposition of Plutonium-239. Be in contact with your local electricity company to assure that you can achieve the greatest tone from the amplifier circuitry itself.
You would fit in nicely over at future producers.marshall.amps said:oh ok yea thanks but do u seriously think i understood what u just said
HOW DO U CAHCK POLARITY??????????????? PLZ AND THANKS
first, you get a digital multimeter, and set it to the jigowatt scale. then, set the range to +/- 1.21 jigowatts. its best if you do this while its raining or cloudy as the negatively charged ions in the atmosphere can clarify the reading. this next step isnt necessary, but if you can, confirm the calibration of the multimeter by testing a cars battery - preferably a delorean as they have the most advanced electrical systems - but any car will do in a pinch. then once thats all set to specs, go to the box you made, and insert a probe into each input 2 at a time. test each input with another input until you go through each combination of inputs. the reading should NOT fluctuate by more than 1.21 jigowatts. if it does and you plug in anyway, you will fry your amp and maybe even knock out power to the whole house. if your box passes the test, set the multimeter to the kilo-ohms scale, and test the continuity of each guitar string. they should have 5 - 8k ohms. if any guitar string shows less than that (or even worse - full continuity) replace the set of strings. lastly, check your guitar cable for voltage drop. simply set the multimeter to the DC voltage scale, and place a probe at each end of the cable while its NOT plugged in. anything less than 100 volts means your cable is fucked. running multiple amps together is serious business. you need to really make sure everything is up to snuff before you do it. the checks i just detailed for you will ensure safe and problem-free operation.marshall.amps said:oh ok yea thanks but do u seriously think i understood what u just said

yes. check here - www.punctuation.com.marshall.amps said:is there any thing i can buy thats just like BOSS MULTIPLE JACK J-5 that does this and why did they quit making them this sucks i mean im making this to wire a bunch of crap amps for singing
lol. well youre still better off that marshall boy here.TragikRemix said:greg i pissed myself.
i said 'voltage drop'. your cable stores voltage. you need to see how much its losing. thats the 'drop'.marshall.amps said:lastly, check your guitar cable for voltage drop. simply set the multimeter to the DC voltage scale, and place a probe at each end of the cable while its NOT plugged in. anything less than 100 volts means your cable is fucked.
how is it suposed to read 100 volts if theres no power in the cable
its not a 'wire', its a cable. big difference. a cables cross-sectional area is what determines how much voltage it can store. whenever you just turn your amp off, all the voltage that was in the cable stays there. its acts as a 'bridge' for the next time you turn your amp on. if it werent for that stored voltage, there would be a lag in sound the next time you turned your amp on and strummed your guitar. think of it like a garden hose. an empty hose creates a delay between the time you turn on the faucet and when the water actually comes out the end. dude, this isnt rocket science.marshall.amps said:its a wire it doesnt store voltage it conducts it
