Think about it. The signal flows from the source, through the preamp to the amp which sends it to the speakers. The arrows from the source (CD, tuner, tape, record player) should point to the preamp. The arrows from the preamp should point to the amp. Now, will you hear a difference? Who knows?
DIRECTION OF SIGNAL FLOW VIA INTERCONNECTS
CURRENT SETUP:
Arcam AVP700-Pre/Pro
Arcam P1000-Amp
Quad 22L2-Speakers
Denon 3800 Dvd/Cd
Transparent MusicLink 100
I have had this system for approx 2 years and have never really been satisfied with the overall tonal balance of this setup. After during a little reading I found out that my interconnects may be plugged in incorrectly between the pre/pro and the amp. I currently have the arrows of the ic's facing into pre/pro from the amp. Is this correct? I've always assumed that the pre/pro was the source.
