Home Amp/Preamp Asylum

Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

Disagree...maybe it's just semantics but

The impedance issues you mention are not "problems" as you would like to convey. They are simply parameters or rules to consider for implementation.

One thing I have found as I have ditched mega-buck active preamps is that with an AVC, if you take heed of these parameters and system gain, nothing will surpass the passive as long as you like the sound of your amp. I suspect the latter is the biggest problem of all.

Btw, it seems to me that most dacs' output are 2-2.5 and in balanced configuration double this. The more you attentuate the AVC, the more the "problems" go away.
