Anybody know what happens if you split the signal from a source 2 ways
(to 2 amplifiers) with a '1 goes into 2' RCA phono adaptor??

Is the signal weaker? Does it matter if the signal is a) only being used
by one amp or b) used by both amps at the same time (unlikely)???

Apologies if this sounds dim, but I have no real idea and I have the
adaptors and the need....




If you are using a splitter and only feeding one amplifier and the other
destination plug unconnected then no difference. If you are using both
destination amps then it depends on the input impedance of the
destination amplifiers as to if it loads the source too much, under these
conditions you may end up with a weaker signal. Suck it and see :-))



OK Mike, it is being sucked and seen - seems to be OK. (Tuner shared
between two amps.) Doesn't seem to be making a lot of difference??

You need to be very careful with this. Only half the electrons will get to
each amp which means the transparency, deep bass and overall stereo clarity
will suffer (or improve depending one which type of electrons each amp
gets) ;-)
