September 17, 200817 yr comment_161856 So I'm considering running two amps off a single source, and was wondering if anyone had any experience with and could comment on signal degradation with Ys/2-for-1 adapters such as ... ? Was avoiding a switch box if possible. Report
September 17, 200817 yr comment_161858 As usual, I prefer to make my own. As far as signal degradation is concerned the guy who I built those for claimed there was none. And he doesn't exactly have a crappy rig. Edited September 17, 200817 yr by n_maher Report
September 17, 200817 yr comment_161859 I used a pair of radioshack splitters for a while and it didnt seem like it degraded the signal in any way. Report
September 17, 200817 yr comment_161860 Like the others said. You will not notice any ill effect using the adapters. Report
September 17, 200817 yr comment_161875 i use a pair of RadioShack ones and they seem to get the job done quite well Report
September 17, 200817 yr comment_161890 I agree that there should be no problem and have used the type you pictured, but I recall something about not having both amps on at the same time or something about "feedback" for lack of a more accurate term going to the source, etc. If anybody has those kind of guidelines, it would be nice to know them.

September 17, 200817 yr comment_161895 If you have both amps on at the same time your source will have to drive both at the same time and that could cause problems depending on the abilities of the source's output stage. Report
September 17, 200817 yr comment_161976 I have a pair like in your picture and have not noticed any degradation in quality. Report
