    Hello.

    Please give me an opinion. Does it make sense to connect the receiver with a stereo amplifier to listen to music, e.g. from a network drive or spotify? Please let me know if I understand correctly. The source of the signal will be the receiver and this signal will be passed to the amplifier? Does it make sense? Regards. Martin.

    Maybe it's different for the intelligent: do you want to listen to music from the Internet or some storage device on a regular receiver with an AUX input, for example?
    What's the reason you don't want to use an amp? Quality? parameters?

    Can you briefly describe the configuration of this idea.
    Most receivers have some kind of output from which you can drive an external amplifier.

    You understand well.
    Do you already have an amplifier or receiver?

    It makes no sense to combine :) to listen to music unless we have no choice.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the functions and connections of "Pre Out" and "Main In" on amplifiers. "Pre Out" is primarily used to connect external devices such as graphic equalizers, additional power amplifiers, or active subwoofers, allowing for enhanced audio control and system expansion. "Main In" serves as an input for internal audio sources with built-in preamplifiers, effectively bypassing the amplifier's preamp stage and operating the device in power amplifier mode. Users emphasize the importance of proper connections and the sequence of powering devices to avoid damage. The conversation also touches on the necessity of jumpers for certain amplifier configurations and the implications of using different brands and models in these setups.
