I just came across this

and was struck by this:

In a truly innovative design, a brief shadow recording is continuously made 20dB down from the normal input and stored in memory for a short time. If a transient peak clips the standard input, the lower level audio is normalized and ...

My only question is how to tell what kind of leads I've got. Right now, I'm just using some speaker wire, somewhat thicker than your average consumer wires.
Don't. 300 ohm antenna wire is cheap . Just go to the hardware store--I'm sure you can set yourself up for under $5.

Also, is what I'm ...

For curiositys sake ...

So do I make a loop from 300 to G, 75 to G, or all three to each other?

It depends on the antenna you have. For standard 300 ohm lead, connect one end to FM 300 and one to G (assuming that out at the other end, you're twisting/soldering the two leads together). Or if it's a 75 ohm antenna, one ...

OK, I have an antenna question: My Marantz 2225 antenna connections look like this:

FM....FM.......G.....AM
|-300-|--75--|.......|
0.......0........0.......0

the numbers are ohms.

So do I make a loop from 300 to G, 75 to G, or all three to each other?

how about using a ball that looks like a testicle or a prostate gland?

OK, so at work there is an old ghetto blaster with RCA inputs. These inputs have a toggle switch for normal line-level operation as well as a path that includes a pre-amp for vinyl (like I said, this is an OLD ghetto blaster)
Anyway, I've been plugging in my MP3 player to the inputs and it's not ...

put the cellist in a soundproof glass box and mic it with an RE20

no, seriously.

i wish more stages had soundproof glass boxes for this sort of thing.

Make one of those amps a bass amp; bass amps really give you the "chunk."
Someone brought up the point that carrying two amps is cumbersome; this is true. However, if that extra amp was everybodys extra amp then you could share the work. What I'm getting at is that it might be fun to plug everyone ...
