Re: any problems using a passive pre amp with a valve amp?

I agree with Joseph. My transformer attenuators will beat any resistor or potentiometer-based volume controls. Using transformer attenuators also solves the problem of source impedence, since transformers are ratio devices and the power is preserved. i.e. the lower the voltage, the higher the current, and the lower the output impedence.
