I just ordered a new Landry head. I plan on running it with my 212 cab (16 ohm). I also own a peavey classic 30 112 combo. How would I use my classic 30 for a wet side and the Landry as dry? I don't think my Landry has a line out, but there are two speaker jacks.

I want to run all my time based effects in the loop of the peavey classic 30 and run nothing in the loop of the Landry. I want the full Landry tone running into the classic 30.

How can I do this? Seems like I would need to get the signal from the Landry down to a line level so I don't overdrive the clean channel of the c30.

If your Landry is a 4-input plexi-style amp, you can daisy-chain out of one of the spare inputs to go to your second amp with it's effects, like the old-school guys did in the seventies. Works and sounds great.

Don't use the spare speaker output to go to any input of another amp, or you will let all the smoke out of the amp.
Amps don't work anymore after you let the smoke out of them.

Oh, you mean with a dummy load. THD's Hotplate would do it for you. Jeff Beck and the guy from Widespread Panic uses one to do what you're wanting to do, effects in a second amp.

The Landry is a single input two channel 100 watt amp.

I think the only part I'm confused by is how to connect the two amps. Chain would look like this:

Guitar>>>>>Landry>>>>>>212 and peavey.

You would want to do something like this diagram, or instead of going straight into the Peavey's main input as shown, you could go from the THD load's line out straight to your effects, then go from effects output into the Peavey's effects return (power amp In) jack, using the Peavey as a powered speaker cabinet. Either way, whichever sounds better to you.
