Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, it can split a mono signal to two amplifiers for a stereo effect, or combine two mono signals into one.
No, it only requires a 9V battery for the LED indicator. A power supply won't affect the signal path.
The buffer helps maintain signal strength over longer cable runs and prevents signal loss, especially useful with high-gain amps.
