    2 Preamps into 1 Power Amp only

    I consider buying a Benchmark DAC 1 and feed it straight into my Rotel RMB-1075. I have already hooked up the Soundprocessor, so there is no input left on the Power Amp side.

    Is it possible to feed 2 Cinch Cables into the same Cinch In of the Power Amp?

      Not without some sort of switch. You don't want to 'y' it in because of the feedback that would produce (and most likely smoke). What preamp are you using? It could have a 'bypass' mode that would basically route the full unaltered signal of the DAC through the preamp.

          I am using the Arcam AVP700, it has a direct through. I still get the impression it is a bit laid back, but this might be the DV88plus.

          The reason to connect directly into the Amp is more of a space problem I can't put the Benchmark 1DAC on top of the pre-amp, space is only on the power amp.

          Anyhow I don't want to risk "smoke".

          thanks for your advice

              Technical Question: Pre Amp into Power Amp
              by NMyTree
              Hi.

              I have question regarding output voltage of my Vincent Hybrid SA-T1 Pre Amp. Is that the right term?


              I'm wondering if my SA-T1 has enough or adequate juice to be matched up with my Butler TDB 2250 Hybrid Power amp?

              I don't know much about these...

              Hey guys:

              Would you mind providing opinions/advice related to power configurations in a stereo setup that includes a hell of a lot of expensive Classe equipment?

              Classe 3200
              Classe SSP600

              by m1ke323
              I just bought a Rotel 1080 to use for my tower speakers I am building. Previously I was just using my HK 225 receiver to power my speakers. I hooked up the amp with RCA cables from my HK receiver, I tried the Video 1 out, Video 2 out, Tape out, etc.

              When I tried to use the amp to power...

              For a long while I have been grappling with imaging and brightness issues with my system. I had thought it was a problem with power but have recently discovered that it is a component issue. My setup is as follows:

              Supratek Sauvignon tube pre-amp
