Rowland preamp to Audiolab integrated

This is really disturbing an possibly very stupid.
As a temporary arrangment I am thinking about getting Rowland Consonance preamp with phono or older Rowland Coherence preamp and run it into line level input of my Audiolab 8000LX integrated. I cannot run it into power-in of the Audiolab without some modifications.
What do you think is most likely to happen?
Just can't afford two Rowland pieces at the same time.

Hi Inna,
Does the "Main In" to bypass the preamp on your 8000LX not function, or is it an impedance mismatch issue?

BTW, have you considered the JRDG Capri as an option? Balanced + unbalanced LL outs, latest JRDG power management technology, excellent optional phono stage, and very transparent. You may want to check out Giudocorona's very positive (and informative) A-gon comments on the Capri, and other things JRDG.

"Audiolab's manual says no-no without installing some kind of module..." In that case, I agree with Meiwan's comment.

"but I am just not in the mood to experiment like that." ...Wise.
