BTam Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I have 2 integrated amps: one Redgum 120ENR (150w per channel) and one MF A5 (250 watts). Can I use one as preamp, and preamp out into second amp? 1. In this case, would I get the sound of 1st amp Redgum (warm) as preamp plus the power of 2nd MF with 250watts. 2. Or would MF overwrite the Redgum warm sound with its own? 3. Could it cause any harm to any amp? Thanks for anyone advice. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bisguittin Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Do not do this. There is great potential for harm to your system. Integrated amps are not designed to be ganged together in that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTam Posted November 30, 2020 Author Share Posted November 30, 2020 Many thanks. This is what I am afraid of. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bisguittin Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 If pre and power sections of both amps are available, that is of course different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTam Posted November 30, 2020 Author Share Posted November 30, 2020 there is only preamp out. There is no power section, just ordinary integrated amp. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muon* Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Yeah, no go as if done you will have an active pre amplification going into another active pre before the power amplification stage of the other amp, everything would be mismatched, gain structure, impedance's ect'.
