RE: After looking at the prices of passive preamps I decided....

Exactly. Sometimes less is more. But sometimes less is less.

To get technical, the output impedance of any passive is dire. So it is trying to drive whatever it's plugged into and usually it doesn't do a great job. I've had passives before but they suck compared to a proper preamp. imho.
