What is the aux DC output on the quad 33 rated at and what was it
intended to power? I'm just interested and wondering if if could feed a
headphone amp...


I'd say probably to switch a relay which handled the mains on a high
powered amp - the switched mains outlet from the 33 is pretty weedy.


mmm... good idea - I hadn't thought of that! It doesn't do anything in
the 303 though, so they may have been thinking of more power at some time.
It's only half-wave rectified, which makes sense for a relay.
