I'm totally with you on the above aspect, but I didn't get how you're 
going to possibly DAMAGE your Evolver outputs by plugging in a passive 
converter from two mono quarter inch connecters to a single stereo 
connector....  seems like we're talking about signal loss for that, 
which again shouldn't be "damaging"?

But I'm no engineer......
