One of my amp clients wants me to build a buffer/splitter--one in and three out. There are a couple of helpful starting points on the web, one of which is this design for a one in/three out JFET buffer:

That looks like a good start. However, if used to feed two or more amps, ground loops can form. So I'm wondering if I can use the transformer output setup on the enclosed schematic from a buffered A/B/Y box, but put them on the JFET outputs?
Anyone have enough experience with solidstate stuff to advise here?
Thanks

ground loops
Hi,
You cannot use a transformer output setup on the enclosed schematic from a buffered A/B/Y box it will still produce a ground loops. Just lift the ground on your amplifiers and it will remove the ground loops.
Goodluck!!

The Suhr Mini Mix uses isolation transformers to avoid ground loops.
