By the way, if you want to see a really interesting mismatch in the audio world facilitated by the use of identical connectors for very different applications you should see how well it works out when someone connects a 1/4" speaker out from a Hiwatt custom 100 to a 1/4" input on a P.A. mixer!

There sadly is something correlated between most musicians and basic electrical knowledge. And yes I've seen guitar amps run into mixing boards, 4x12 guitar cabs trying be run through (low power) instrument cables and folks getting zapped by faulty guitar and mic amp circuits/grounding (and blaming the "phantom power" for that). The last fun was a vintage valve amp catching fire in a friends band...
