Preamp to poweramp ??

[andre]

Hello

I wont to connect my Trace Elloit hexa valve preamp to a 2 channel power amp
The preamp has one fullrange output, and to D.I outputs , and one lineout.
How do I connect thepreamp the best way??
Fullrangeoutput whit a Y-cable to the 2 channels of the poweramp (whitout having any lost of sound??)
Or is there antoher (better) way of connecting???

Thanks a lot
Keep it LOW!!

can you bridge the channels on the power amp.then you wouldn't need the y connector and most amps bridged make more power.

Bridging the power amp is always good (if you can) but watch that bridged isn't restricted to an 8ohm load (many 'stereo' 4ohm each side power amps bridge to a higher power but 8ohm load).

Any/all of those outs will work into a power amp and you'd not do any harm trying them to see which pair work best. Depending on the Hexa's controls for the various outs, this will dictate which is best.
