If your amp can accept a 0.5V input with acceptably low noise, then there is no problem. You can increase output gain of the Behringer somewhat, but at the expense of noise. I'd build (or buy) a high end preamp before the Behringer is there was a significant problem.
It's only 0.5VRMS Max? That is lower than line-level.

hmm.. well what is the best way to figure out the best out how to set your gains. do you set the behringer close to 9v but not clipping and set the amp's gain low, or do we set the behringer low and turn the amps gain up?
