Maybe BOB or someone else knows if the effects loop in a boogie Simul Satellite is pre or post EQ.. Thanks

If you have a second amp, it's easy to check: run into the Boogie, out of the effects loop and return to the other amp. Twist a tone knob. If the sound changes, it's post-EQ. If it stays the same, it's pre-EQ.

Thanks Lane; will give that a try but does anybody know for sure. There's no owners manual for this model or the S.O.B.

Mesa's habit has been to have the loop after the tone stack.

I can't recall whether it's before or after the graphic eq, but I think it's before it.

Search for a website called schematic heaven and they have about 20 old boogie schematics and you can see their 'standard' program within amps like the mk 1, 2, sob, etc. That should get you as close to knowing as you need...boogie has never done a lot of drastic changes to their standard topology, particularly the mark series.
