A simple "Y" cord will work fine. That's what I use on my 1980 SA112. I thought about it but I don't have one right now though have a Boss LS-2 pedal. Also my guess is that Y cord will just split my signal and feed each input with half of it while with the LS-2 I will be able to feed the ...

Thank you for the responses! Try to crank the vol up to 4 o'clock then you will s hear a loud hiwatt :D Do you mean the master volume? I cranked it all the way up - yes it's loud :) Maybe I should go from the other side - how loud should be my DR-103 with the preamp gain at half or close to that. I ...

After the euphoria of the purchase fell off I discovered this wasn't an ideal bargain and the amp has some issues so I'd like to hear from hiwatt-experienced people. The amp is missing voltage selector plug but I already ordered the replace...
