270 line out
« on: January 30, 2021, 07:32:38 PM »
A really nice 270 has just popped up on the market in the uk that I will hopefully buy and collect as soon as travel is legal here. I can’t find anything about the 270 having a line out, so I’m just making this post to confirm or disconfirm for myself and others in the future that the 270 baby grand actually has a line out. Thanks :)

Well, it's not really line level out, but an AUX out.
Lower impedance (hotter signal)

But yes, it's not just a headphone out.

The AUX out jack is underneath, towards the back. I can't recall if it actually has a headphone out on it too. If it doesn't, it's easy to do. It's just tapped off the speaker signal before the speakers. Look at the 200A schematics.

I'm 90% sure there is a headphone jack in the front, but I can't access mine at the moment.

A little late to chime in, but happend pop in after a while and saw this post. Mine is sitting in front of me. As Steveo and Cinnanon said, lower left and it is an aux out. No other jacks I am aware of on mine.

That doesn't look like a 270- that might be a 720. Completely different model.
The 270 is the butterfly grand.

Correct Steveo,
It's a 700, I can't even say it was a dyslexic mistake
I'm slipping, oh man!

Sorry if my post misled anyone.

I have a 270; there is a headphone jack on the bottom left as you're sitting at the keys, and an Aux level out at the back. Both jacks are on the bottom of the keyboard.

If you have any doubts about acquiring it, put them aside and jump on it. It's hands down the best sounding Wurly I've ever encountered. The speakers in the back are full size 8's, not the oval 4's in the 200 series. I'm telling you, they're only getting rarer and more expensive!

270's don't really sound any better than anything else in the 200A series, and they take up a LOT more space.  Basically, they are a thing to have if you have a lot of space, need a nice piece of furniture to show off, and don't think you'll ever need to bring it anywhere to be serviced.  Otherwise, go with pretty much anything else, which will have a smaller footprint.
