   Oh, so I guess that means I'm *not* a total retard, eh? Thanks for that.

   Me neither. Now that I've disassembled this it makes perfect sense, as   
   it allows the amp to be put together in a neat package with no external   
   wires except for the power cord.   
      
   With the 6 front-panel screws and the phone-jack nut removed, it's   
   actually *very* easy to disassemble. Not a hard nut to crack at all,   
   like so much other plastic-packaged electronics.
