[Harp-L] gear question

["Smith, Richard" <rismith@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a question for the "gear literate" folks out there.
My harp amp is a Fender Deluxe Reverb, which at 22 watts 
with one 12" speaker, is great for small bars/clubs.  
But with an outdoor jam coming up in May, I'm concerned 
that it might not loud enough for the great outdoors.  
I'm wondering about 2 possibilities.  

I have a Red Knob Champ 12 (12 watts) with a 12" speaker: 
can I connect the two amps together somehow, so I have 
more power, with two 12" speakers?

As for the 2nd possibility, I was at the music store, and 
I saw a Fender Hot Rod Deville which had a paper on top 
showing how to get different sounds from the amp.  One of 
the things it pictured was plugging your instrument into 
the #1 input of one channel, then running a jumper from 
the #2 input of that channel into one of theinputs of the 
other channel.  Since my Deluxe Reverb has 2 channels 
with 2 inputs each, would this work for me?  

I'm concerned about damaging my amp by experimenting 
without knowledge.  Thanks.
