    Front Panel Buffer – When this button is in, the input signal will go through a high-quality audio buffer. A buffer lowers the impedance of the input signal, making it “stronger” and preventing it from losing treble or signal level when splitting the signal to two outputs.

    Y-Not. Solution: Your signal needs to be buffered. Press the Buffer button on the front of the Y-Not, and you’ll be sounding good once again. Problem: When running into an amp with two inputs, the signal level drops when I turn on both the A and B output.
