If all other aspects of the amp is perfect then adding a jack socket for an external speaker could be a simple solution. If this also disconnects the internal speaker you could insert a dummy jack...

Oh, and I do not believe the Line Out in the 100 watt versions (or the newer K50EX) disconnects the speaker. The Volume knob on the amp affects the Line Out volume while the Master on the amp...
