By using the fixed output of the Rogue into the Yamaha, you will have independent volume control of the Yamaha with the other 2 sets of speakers being driven by it. Using the variable preout of the Rogue, the Yamaha will be dependent on the volume setting of the Rogue. This simple daisy chaining idea would best be served, ime, by using the fixed output of the Rogue.
Music in multiple rooms
Hi guys,
I'd like to hook up 3 sets of speakers to the same source - with discrete volume control and the ability to turn off each set of speakers.
My idea is this:
- Connect sources and 1 set of speakers to an Integrated amp (INT1) that has "Pre-amp" outs
- then connect (INT1) from Pre-amp outs to any input on a 2nd Integrated (INT2) with 2 pairs of speaker terminals.
For ex: CD Player/Streamer/Turntable -> Rouge Sphinx (1 set of speakers) -> Yamaha A-S801 (2 sets of speakers)
Should this work? Would this work well? Should I use the variable or fixed output on Rogue Sphinx?
Is there a better solution? Open to any suggestions.
Thanks!
