Your partner-in-crime is mistaken.  First, a PA IS an amplifier.  It's an amp that's designed to take an input signal and make it louder with minimum added coloration.  So it is in fact an ideal amp for an amp modeling device.

First, thanks!  I often run the RP355 into the RP255, and the 255 directly to the PA.  So again: the issue here is how you've set up the PA.  What's the make and model of the PA, by the way?
