Works great though once its set up, just need to be cautious with the different impedance mismatches you might have when switching cabs
That's not the way I intend to use the switcher most of the time. I don't think many people use them that way. The benefit is being able to route any amp to any cabinet while using a single pedalboard without having to get behind the amps and move cables from amp to amp. I have 4 heads in the room right now and only ever use one because swapping cables around is a pain.The OCD in me would never allow myself to have multiple amps fired up at once, all tubes burning away for hours at a time just to 'punch in' a different amp for a brief moment. Not knocking your approach but I couldn't do it.
Well, then that is a smart way to go about it. Less setup time = more playing time. Cool.That's not the way I intend to use the switcher most of the time. I don't think many people use them that way.

Did the same with my DeLisle. 8 months and the fucking cable parts still sitting hereAnd then realize you need to make a huge pile of cables as part of the install? Just ordered $200 in supplies to make all the extra signal and speaker cables I'll need but I'm stoked to have easy access to all my heads without swapping cables around.
The photo of all the cables is a bit crazy Matt. I take it you have a small army of elves that set it up.
your new name is......"THE WIZARD"....lol. I really hate when I have to unplug something because whenever I do, something in the signal path is off when I try to hook everything back up. You have to take your time be meticulous. If I thought about it ahead of time, I would have gotten different colored cables for each amp to make it easier to know where each cable is going and that it's plugged into the right spot. Thought I think I'm gonna get some colored shrink wrap to put around the jacks... that will help.
