      Hi,
      I saw this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaYhMNw6cPQ

      And I was wondering if anyone else has experience with connecting the spark amp to a seperate cabinet?

      Just like in the video I want to use the headphone output to a power amp and then directly into my 4x2 marshall cabinet.

      I wonder:

      1. if this could damage your spark amp and/or cabinet
      2. suggestions on volume level of the spark and the power amp
      3. Any other tips regarding this idea.

      Greetz

        @david-paais I have not heard of that method, and the Marshall speakers are not flat response speakers so it will not sound the same. I have a pair of HeadRush 108FRFR speakers that I connect to a Left/Right signal splitter into the Spark headphone jack. It sounds great, and can get quite loud.

          yes.. that's the only way I play my spark now, if I ever bother to switch it on.
          spark headphone out >amp head (return or rca) > quad box
          Sounds excellent once you dial the bass down to 25%.
          Once you've tried this method , I doubt you'll use it on its own again unless you really have to.
          The spark is just a toy without a quad box really... anyone that says it's not, doesn't own a quad an head.....
          Why would anyone want to use it through a quad?
          Anyone that likes the thump without the windows rattling.
          But if you still like the windows rattling, just turn it up 😂😂
