I got a good one off of Amazon. Very well made and solid. Note; You don't want to turn the tube amp on until you have the speakers switched.
Fake bi-wire with two amps
Hi everyone, I have a question about the two amps connecting to 1 pair speakers with two amps/set ups.
I have two different set ups, one is SS and the other is tube, but only one pair speakers for now. So, I am wondering can I conncet both amps to my speakers with different spekaer cable and with the jumper cable on. So when I need to use it just turn on one of the SS or TUBE amp and save sometimes from switching the speaker cables.
Don't know if I make myself clear, just a new idear pop out for my lazy ass. If anybody have tried it, please tell yes or no, or what's gonna happened to the speakers like impedence change, sound characteristic change, anything
Thanks

First, I agree totally that this is a bad idea. A year or so ago my nephew called and asked me the same question. He wanted to connect two amps to the same speaker terminals and only power up the amp he wanted to use at the time. I told him it was a bad idea and strongly advised against doing so. And I feel like this is an inherently bad idea. But aside from opening the door to possibly accidentally powering up both amps at the same time, I really don't know specifically if there are other likely problems. Can someone with the tech chops chime in? Bill |
@wbs seems like nobody interested in answering this question. Ask before I do it cause I don't want what @tony1954 said happened. @tony1954 i didnot see any connection between my question and the Russian Roulette. But anyway, let's see if my next post gonna be how to repair or not. At least it's gonna be some funny experience in my hifi journey. There's always some new ''idea'' pop out isn't it |
