Ok, I got to wondering what my Jr would sound going into the HRD. I unplugged the speaker jack from the Jr and plugged into the speaker jack on thechassis[i] of the HRD
[/i]Good news is there was no explosion or sparks, but no joyous chunky tones either. I got to wondering if I put the speaker plug from JR into the HRD power amp in on the top control panel will work. I was about to test it when, the Jr. (back to std configuration) ceased outputting sound. Lights on, so I gotta chase that down.

But has anyone tried this? Hope it's possible.

Thanks

No!

The speaker output of an amp should be used for a speaker, do not connect it to the Power Amp In on another amp. :!:

That's a very good way to destroy the Output Transformer due to operating the amp with no speaker load. In fact I'd take a guess that your Blues Junior may now be suffering from this particular malady.

yikes I didn't try it with the [power amp in, just the speaker output into the HRD. I get it, bad idea what I was trying. So, am I correct that there's no simple way to use the output from the 15 watt Bjr into the 2x12?

BTW, junior is back on line.

Use the 2x12 speakers plugged into the output jack of the BJr. You can connect other external speaker cabinets to the BJr output jack.
