Hi folks, I've got a simple tech question about hooking up my GA5 to the 2x12's (total 4ohm) in my Fender Twin. The Twin has an external speaker jack that's in parallel with the main speaker jack. I'd like to run the output of the GA5 directly into the external speaker jack on the Twin (with the Twin turned OFF of course). Is there any reason to think that this would somehow harm the internals of the Twin (e.g. output transformer)??? This just seemed like a convenient way to use the Twin as an "external cabinet" for the GA5!

FYI, I'm still waiting on my CVA8 from Ted Weber & co. It seems they're pretty busy over there.
