Greetings Jose. Standard IVY III build has 2v output so yes it can drive an amp connected directly provided you have some volume control. Does the Gen 1 Buffalo have volume control or does your amp have gain control? Otherwise it could be real loud with max output. ;)

Thanks... Rich. I have the Volumite Controller for my gen 1 buffalo, so I can control the volume from there.

The IVY-III can even power headphones directly.
