Sansui C1000 question!!!!!

[mprivitera1]

Hello,

I'm willing to buy this preamp, I have a question to ask you; do you think if I connect a power amplifier to the normal preout, a power output to the "out processor" ... can it drive both of them?
Thank you

Yes, but the processor loop won't have control of the volume.
Instead you can use Y connectors on the main outputs.

thanks replication ... it's true, too bad the loss of volume control !!! ..but doing the "Y" connection does not degrade the signal? ..

Use good cables and connectors. It's also possible to make your own, with two cables per channel
that are soldered to one RCA plug for the preamp end, if the cables are not too thick.
Then you can make them long enough so no adapter is needed.

This preamp's "Output" can comfortably drive a 2K load.

Since modern amp inputs are generally over 10K, you can "Y" it out to _five_ power amps, maybe more, without any strain.

I once built a similar box with a slightly beefier "preamp" and 16 outputs. Some of those outputs ran to remote splitters with 4 more outputs.

When you get a rig that large, doing live recording, you also have to think about what happens when a wire gets shorted (idiot assistant, spike heels on stage wire, bad recorder...). But for a few splits in a playback system, no worries.

.. thanks your advice ... so a cable like this ... right?
