In Reply to: DACT 10K attenuator..on Mood Indigo linestage. posted by Bas Horneman on November 1, 2004 at 17:11:07:
Bas,I use the DACT 10K with a pair of Lundahl 1676 wired in 1:1 input transformers in my linestage if you recall. It's a nice alternative to the S&B TVC with either Shallco or state of the art Seiden switches. Cost difference too (rough estimate below):
DACT 10K stereo attenuator ~$150
Pair Lundahl 1676 $180
Total: $330.S&B TVC $550
Shallco switch or Seiden switch ~ $100-$150
Total: $650-$750.But I bet there's a performance difference though! Haven't compared them but I listed it here for everyone to try. The first method does include the galvanic isolation that transformers provide, but also has the benefits of amorphous core. The second method is more expensive but I believe to be state of the art, but man is it pricey!!!
Best,
Anand.
