150 amps, or maybe it is watts. But I've got it all hooked up together
and it works fine. Thanks to all of ya for the help.

On the first system I designed I made the newbie error of using a nl8 to be
both the monitors speaker whip out and the efx rack insert
as luck would have it it wasn't two weeks before a friend "just helping"
patched the amps out to the efx insert point
I learned my lesson on why we use the connectors we use

I'd think that sending speaker level voltage into an efx unit, console
insert, or EQ would fry the unit. Yikes!
The idea of using 1/4" conx for amp outs or speaker ins should be
done away with, IMO. I'm sure it's been around for so long mainly
due to cost and commonality.
