Connecting external AMP to B100sst

jgiord · « **on:** 31 Dec 2006, 01:29 am »

Can I connect an external power amp to my B100-sst integrated amp? If so, would I connect to the Power AMP In and set the Separate/connected switch to separate. Thanks.

Hi,

Use the PRE OUT and set the switch to Separate.

Unfortunately the pre-out is being used to connect a subwoofer. Can I use a y-cable to connect to both subwoofer and power amp simultaneously. Thanks.

Yes a Y cable should be OK - only issue may be a ground loop depending on the other amplifier- what amp are you using?

Plan to purchase a stereo amp off audiogon (not sure which one yet). Need more power as I'm clipping the b100sst. Any type of amp I need to avoid to prevent the ground loop?

Well a Bryston would not be an issue of course but other amps will just have to be a trial and error approach.

Thanks...haven't ruled out a Bryston, depends on what's available. Looking for at least an AMP of comparable quality.
