Need to make 3 line outs from 1

Hello.

I'm planning to tweak one Car CD-player (Honda Accord 2008).

It hasn't pre outs, so I'll try to make some and get signal before power amp.

But I'm worrying about one problem. I need 2 or 3 line outs to make per-channel amplification (some kind of bi-amp).
And I think that paralleling 3 outs is not very good idea, right?

Can You please give me advice how can i make this? Maybe some kind of simple buffer based on opamp? I would be very pleased if someone share scheme of this...
 
If the pre-amp (really it's a line amp, as the output voltage stays the same) has a robust output stage and all the power amps have the same type input stage, than the pre-line-buffer-amp should have no problems driving several amps. Problems sometimes arise with amp inputs that but different demands on the buffer. Turning one of the amps off can cause high distortion in the other connected amps.
 
Thanks for answer.

It's actually not line-amp, but pre-amp-out because it is placed right before the amp stage...

I just worried about output resistance and signal level of pre amp stage. If normal out has x kiliohms, than 3 paralleled will have about three time lower, right? And normal output level is ~2V, than paralleling three out will have the same value or lower?
 
Better if it's not your car ! You can ask a lot for charge and keep the rest..
I was posting you a simple schematic altough it would require a noiseless DC-DC converter to raise the voltage to 250 V. Better go with the simple applications of the TL061...and change from split supply to single supply ...or use two 9V batteries.
Sorry I threw off all my books!
 
No thanks, 250V without skills - it's very dangerous in car.

I need simple solution for 0...9V or +\-12...15V

Sory, but where did you post that? : )

It's not case of commercial, I just help someone to build SQ car and now we are thinking over future project, before buying amps and loudspeakers.
 
Hello Stream !Got rid of all my books 'cos everything is on the Web.
Here's the application note...Eeek! A mouse !
I was posting you a vacuum tube one , but you can easily find it..perhaps better if supplied with lower voltage ie. 80 V.
