How? a line out of the back of the YBA-3? did you use the power amp portion at all? i've also heard that some DI's (avolon U5) can handle the speaker out of amps.
i was also under the impression that it is bad to run a tube amp w/out a speak load.

Speaker out into JDI then XLR out to the board and the thru to the cab. Yes the JDI captures the pre and power sections in this setup.

That's just it, I don't like the should in that sentence. I would like to have more watts for clean, and probably run a bass muff in front.

Fender 300 PRO can be had for around $800 too. That will definitely be loud enough. I liked the sound of the fender more than the Mesa. I'm sure you could also find a user SVT CL or SVT-2 for that price.

If you really want to spend more then there are lots of options.
 
SERIOUSLY GOOD TONE, VOLUME, and VALUE on the Fender 300pro!!!
its big and heavy... but sooooooo damn good!

also... the Sunn 1200s, its basically the same amp without the tube power section and is screamingly good tone wise!!! I take it when I want the sound of the 300pro without the backache.
 
$500????!!!!! that was a total STEAL!!! They usually go for $750-1100 used in good shape with good tube-age..... but $500????!!!! my god how can you pass that up?

edit.... Oh wait... you said the 300ps, not the 300 pro..Ive always been intriqued by those but the weird outputs kinda deterred me.
