jimpettinato Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I know a lot of people posted throughout the forum asking if the Helix could go straight into a cabinet, though it must go through a power amp first. I did notice that you can go out of the headphones jack straight into a cabinet, then control the volume through the headphones knob. The only issue is the volume is somewhat limited and won't get nearly as loud as most people would like. Couple questions: Is tone compromised going this route??? Not sure if it's dumbed down at all coming out of the Phones jack. And can an damage be done to the unit cranking this up and using this method often? Thanks everyone, sound is not my specialty.

Charlie_Watt Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 The headphone output is not designed to drive a speaker cabinet. It is probably going to distort the signal quite a bit and it won't be very loud at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
