Powering From the Nait 5's Power Supply
Posted by: Greg Beatty on 02 January 2003
OK -
I've got my Nait 5 taking us into the night
but it just ain't the same not having the LP12 hooked up.
So...
It seems that the Nait 5 CAN power the Stageline via the AUX (or is it AUX 2?) powered input.
A few questions:
1) If the Stageline is hooked up, is it drawing power all of the time? If so, will this degrade the Nait 5's performance with other sources?
2) If I add an external amp later that DOES have the ability to power a preamp, can the power supply in the Nait 5 be used to power the Stageline to free up the power supply in the amp from this task?
3) If I add an external amp later that DOES NOT have the ability to power a preamp, say a 250, can the power supply in the Nait 5 be used to power the preamp section of the Nait 5?
3) If I added an external amp and a FC2 or Hicap later and used the Nait 5 as a pre, could the power supply in the Nait 5 be used to power the Stageline - thus freeing up the FC2 or Hicap to power only the preamp section of the Nait 5?
I apologize if this is covered in the manuals, but it wasn't clear to me just how this would work. It would be nice if the power supply in the Nait 5 can be used like a *-cap to power its own preamp section or a Stageline.
