Tone King Imperial Preamp with the PS-2A

Can someone please tell me the best way to plug in the Imperial Preamp into the PS-2A? I would like to just use the Tone King as a preamp for the Fryette. I also want to use the FX loop on the Tone King for time-based FX. Thanks

Hello and welcome to the forum! You would simply use one of the Tone King’s balanced outputs to feed the Line In on the PS-2A. This would be a typical preamp to PS-2A power amp type of connection. You can then use the Imperial preamp’s effects loop for your time-based effects. Please let me know if I can assist you in any way. Cheers! Gil

Isn’t the Line In on the PS2-A unbalanced? Which type of mic cable ( XLR to 1/4") should I use, balanced or unbalanced?

Yes, but that will not create any issues. A standard XLR female to 1/4” TS male cable to make this connection will work just as intended. It just so happens that the Tone King Imperial preamp only has XLR outputs whereas most guitar preamps have 1/4” or both types of output jacks.
