WHAT is the correct way to split the signal from a wireless mic receiver so I can run it to 2 different amps ?
So the situation is this. I have a choral group of 50-100 for which I mic a piano that is in the pit in front of them with a speaker on the stage behind their risers. I currently use an old NADY wireless mic set and an old Pyne guitar amp/speaker, and it works reasonable well. My problem is they, picky people that they are, would like 2 speakers instead of just 1 in the center. So I bought 2 guitar practice amp/speakers (10amp), primarily because they were inexpensive and small. All 3 amp/speakers have a 1/4" input and an 1/4" output and individually work fine with the mic. Now the problem.
I though I could just string input-output-input, but turns out all 3 outputs are headphone, so they cut out when I plug a cable in. So we decided to just SPLIT the cable from the mic. Nope, got all kinds of noise. Which leads to my question. WHAT is the correct way to split the signal from a wireless mic receiver so I can run it to 2 different amps ? I am sure there is a way to do it, I just can't figure it out.
Thanks

ps I'm a lighting guy doing double duty, so please cut me as much slack as possible.
