The simple - Only one coupling cap is needed in-between a preamp and an amp. Tube preamps have a coupling cap. Some (not all) SS amps have them as well.
When this scenario exists the coupling cap in the amp needs to replaced with a jumper wire.
SS > SS and tube > tube works fine. When mixing the two this issue may arise and needs resolution.
You won't notice the gross sonic degradation until the Rotel get some surgery. It's easy to find/fix from the schematic.
