It measures 60 kilohms with the selector switch in the balanced position, 58 kilohms in the unbalanced position. I have run two preamps (one SS, the other tube) through the two inputs for a couple of years, often with two active sources, switching back and forth without any problems. I also ran the idea by Mr. James Tanner at Bryston beforehand, who OK'ed the setup. The Bryston manual contains no warnings about two inputs. Do you think I might still have some risk here? Thanks.
