I am confused by this and can't figure it out from the manuals. Perhaps someone can help.

I have a Cyrus PreXvs Preamp (with a PSXR power supply) which I would like to use with my Roksan Kandy MKIII integrated amp and Roksan Kandy MKIII power amp in a bi-amped setup.

Obviously I can use the two Kandys in a bi-amp mode by themselves but I feel that the Pre Xvs (it has a PSXR power supply also) is slightly higher end and would benefit my system. Thus, I would like to use the Cyrus Preamp with the two Roksan Kandys (one of them being an integrated amp) as power amps. Is this possible?

Thank you in advance.

Sincerely huric9

Thats not really a good idea..

The Roksan 'Kandy' Intergrated should have double Pre outputs for your other Kandy Power amp...Why not try the Cyrus with the 'Kandy' power against the Kandy Intergrated with 'Kandy' Power?

I tried an Arcam A75 intergrated with Arcam P75 power amp a while back, i didnt like the Amps but adding the power amp was a vast improvement..
