I assume that means if I wired a second source into the endpin, I could use a stereo TRS cord to go into a blender that takes one (or use a split cord to go into separate channels).
The Lyric has an endpin preamp that appears to support a 2nd channel. You'd want to run your second source into that. You can't separate the the Lyric preamp from it's end-pin jack, it's all one piece, so there's no way to add the Lyric to another system, you'd have to do it the other way around. I think that means the 2nd source would have to be passive.

I have yet to try this type of setup, on my todo list.
