Hi all!

 

Recently i could grab a pair of Beolab 6000's for very little money.

The problem is: I just have a full PowerAmp and no PreOuts.

 

Now, i found a high-low converter which lowers the audio signal to line-in level.

So I would connect like this:  Amp -> Converter -> Beolab 6000

It's this converter: http://www.amazon.de/Teufel-Level-Converter-5011-Lautsprecher-Hochpegel-Signale/dp/B00HR6XD90/ref=sr_1_1?s=ce-de&ie=UTF8&qid=1431991241&sr=1-1&keywords=teufel+converter

 

Is this szenario really possible or will it blow the 6k's and my ears?

 

What about controlling the volume?

 

Thanks in advance!

I would strongly suggest using the kit from Sounds Heavenly.  Steve offers free shipping andfa no quible money back return policy.  He knows his B&O and makes or supplies products he knows work as they should.  If there are any problems, he will deal with it promptly and to your satisfaction.  You won't find that from most Amazon sellers.

I am pretty sure the one in the link of the op would work too.

Teufel is a respectable company - they know what they do!

Personally, however I'd go for the one from Steve.
