[QUOTE="Corium_AZ, post: 145224, member: 3357"] You are right about it not technically damaging anything. I've powered up my RM plenty of times, even tried playing thru it prolly too long, without being connected to a speaker load, and mine is fine. It's not good practice at all, but I'm sure it'd be fine. However... I would imagine that your bias would not be quite right if the amp was not connected to a load. Even if you don't have the volume up, I'm pretty sure you want that load there to 'complete the circuit' if you will. Someone more technically knowledgable about this I'm sure will chime in, but you'd surely have better luck posting this in the 'Egnater/Randall Modular Amps' section of the forum. Might get missed by a lot of folks in the off topic section, and this is definitely not off topic... [/QUOTE]
