Can I connect my SDA CRS+ to my Denon POA-4400a monoblocks?

Hi all,
This might be a dumb question.....
I know that SDA's need an amp with common ground. I've just bought a pair of Denon POA-4400a monoblocks with their matching DAP-2500a preamplifier. Given the two separate power amps are connected to the preamp via a choice of RCA cables or balanced XLRs, does this mean I have common ground or not?
Just want to be safe rather than sorry. Thanks!

They do not share a common ground.

You need to build a Dreadnaught.Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

Are the monoblocs bridged/balanced?
If not, perhaps they can be strapped like the Adcom GFA-565 monoblocs.
The preamp connection means almost nothing in terms of common-grounding. If the preamp is sending a balanced signal to the amp via the XLR, the amp is probably bridged/balanced so they cannot be strapped.
