Hi all, I'm after a bit of a tech answer on using my main theatre amp and a zone 2 amp for a simplemain left right setup. The main theatre amp is a Yamaha Rxv-1073 (7.2)(capable zone 2 situation), the zone 2 amp hopefully would be a Harmon Kardon 2ch amp (model just now?, can provide) (had it for years, dedicated stereo only, great amp by the way). The part that is a little blank to me is mainly as follows, in the Yamaha manual, it states using an external amp (or zone 2 amp) as one that has a volume bypass (or no volume control circuit). The external amp I want to use doesn't have volume bypass, it's an 'old fashioned' dial volume, basic err dotted display (low resolution), can give more details... What is unsure to me is with Yamaha amp hooked up with external amp, although I understand the setup part, what would be the affects of connecting these two amps...? The way I'm thinking is if external amp is set on a reasonable volume, will the main amp be destructive in any way, or visa versa...Any technical help would be appreciated, happy to provide any other details...Thanks in advance, look forward to feedback
