I have 2 small but effective amps, one 35 watts and the other 75 watts, ok on the 75 watt one there is the input all the effects, then to the side it has a headphone jack and something else.

That something else I have no clue what it is, the icon to the side of the unknown input has a little speaker and a musical note beside it. Anyone know what it is, this amp is a Crate. Anyway I wanted to hook up both the amps and I used this input, but something weird happened, when I did this the 35 amp played with all the sound. Like all the sound of the 75 amp is going into the 35 and all the effects of the 75 watt amp are going into the 35 watt amp, so the 35 watt amp is the only one playing sound the 75 watt amp just sits there being turned on not doing anything.

So I ask is this werid?

well I found out what it was, by the way this is my brothers amp he let me borrow it, the model it a GX-20M, and the thing i was talking about was an External Speaker Input: Use this input to connect the amp to an external speaker.

So was actually is the use for this to play the sound of this amp into a much bigger amp?

Not to a bigger amp but to a bigger speaker or multiple speaker cabinet.

Sure, if you don't care about the second amp a whole lot and have a fire extinguisher handy.
Speaker out is an already amplified signal. The input to the second amp is designed for an unamplified signal coming in.

Never ever connect a speaker-out into a regular input, FX-loop or any other line-level input. Ever. Not even when noone is watching. Words can't begin to describe how much you should never do that.

Best case scenerio you blow a fuse.
Worst case scenerio, flames shoot out of the back of the amp catching your house on fire, hot embers from your burning house set your neighbors house on fire, a leaky gas valve in your nieghbors basement causes a huge EXPLOSION starting a forrest fire that burns over a miilion acres, personnel at a secret military installation, seeing all the smoke and flames, launches an ICBM at Moscow which sets off a full nuclear exchange killing all life on the planet (except cockroaches)
So with everything at stake, PLEASE don't plug the speaker out into the other amp (I don't think my insurance will cover extinction)

Wow, that's really a worst case scenario!
