Re: Slave?

My friend has an Earth 100 watt tube amp head model G-2000.
We restored it and it is a great amp.
There is an RCA jack on the back marked "Slave".
Does anyone know what this is?

Thanks.

Just a simple pre-amp out, marker that way to
show it can be used as a 'slave' connection
to another power amp for more power.

It was all the rage back then, using one
preamp stage to power many amps.

One CAN use it to input to another amp
almost (ALMOST) making the Earth an
effect unit. But it also can do harm.
