Most balanced outs put out a 3db louder signal and IMO it would be a mismatch.
can both balanced and unbalanced be used a once?
Having recently made my first foray into audio gear I now have some equipment hook ups to do before enjoying my recent purchases and am hoping someone can advise me on biamping.
I have two Classe amps, a Model 10 and a Model 70, both of which have plugs for balanced and RCA inputs. The preamp is a Classe Model 30 and it too has both balanced and RCA plugs for output.
Given the above my question is this:
Can I use both sets of preamp outputs, the balanced set (L and R) going to one amp and the RCA set (L and R) going to the other amp? Then one amp, say the one which utilizes balanced plugs, would be used to drive the L and R tweeters. The other amp with engaged RCA plugs would be used to drive the L and R woofers.
Seems to me that would work but I've never heard of it being done that way. Could someone please help?
