Component Stacking Question


Can I stack my Amp on top of my preamp ?
Will either component be negatively affected by doing this?
I have a Sherwood Amp 6040 with M0S FET push pull DC that runs warm.
My Pre Amp ...Sherwood 6020 
Components are not in a cabinet.
Thank you

You might get away with it by using a platform and footers between the pre and amp with emi + rfi rejection.
tough to get a better amp for the money and even better when parts are upgraded. Great little sleeper amps.
And yes, don’t stack them. Best to get a cheap shelf set. stable, cheap, etc.

Preamp might be decent too, have never seen a image of the guts of them. One model of preamp, from that series and company (inkel).. was good enough to the the base unit for the Adcom Gfp-1. Also sold under the sears brand, LXI.

these are both Korean inkel products. styled differently, in minor ways... and the amp is slightly modified.

Temp is OK.

Weight, maybe. Is the preamp strong enough for the weight?

Noise - Power transformers can radiate a lot of EMF noise, which can be picked up by other equipment too close to it. You'll hear it as hum.
