Hi all.

I was just wondering, is it possible to have crossfeed capability on a tube amp, or is that technology reserved for SS amps only?

You can do that. I had a Singlepower amp that was built with crossfeed. One standard output and one crossfeed output was available. To be honest though..... the amp sounded much better from the standard output.

to build on sacd_lovers answer:

any amp, whether ss, tube or hybrid, can incorporate crossfeed.

heck, you could even put crossfeed in between source and headphones and skip the amp bit completely!

yep, there are a few crossfeed boxes out there, like Meier's Corda Cross, that you can just plug into the signal - crossfeed has nothing to do with amps in particular, it's just handy to have them included in the same box. Other folks like the crossfeed at the source level - like on their computers via a foobar plug in. someday they'll even stick a crossfeed circuit in a pair of cans, who knows!

Thanks for the replies.

I am thinking that a crossfeed unit independant of the amp might be just the thing I am looking for. Off to do some research on stand-alone crossfeed gear!

Thanks.

I have Corda Cross-1 and it works great. I get a headache and ears hurt if I don't use it, especially when playing games!
