Newbie Here. Dummy Load/Line Out Questions

Post by 2203Thrash » Sun Jun 14, 2009 11:31 pm

Hello everyone! I have been browsing this forum for a while, and it's great! Ok so I have a few questions. I currently have a Weber Load Line kit that I built, but am afraid to use it with my amp due to it's 50-watt rating. See, I have an '82 JCM 800 2203 w/KT88's in it! It probably puts out 130 watts when cranked! I never turn it up past 4 though. So, my idea is to wire two of these Arcol resistors, in series to the circuit, instead of the current ones:

This will give me a 200 watt load, which should be fine. What do you guys think of the Weber line out circuit, will it be a good match for my amp? Here is the layout:

If this circuit is not a good match, I will probably go with one of the other circuits I have seen here. It should be mentioned that this box will be only for recording direct to my pc, and eventually reamping. Thanks!
