RE: Line amp/AVC/TVC thoughts

Adjusted to -6db (the worse case) a 100K Ohms passive resistive ladder attenuator has an output impedance of 25k ohms.

The low pass filter created by 25k ohms driving into 400pF has a -3db point of 16kHz.

I know you said "the level (and HF-extend) where acceptable" but I disagree WRT the HF-extension. A -3db point of 16kHz will shift the phase all the way down to 1.6kHz

BTW don't forget to add the cable capacitance that will make the numbers even worse.

I think AVCs are great but I'm not sure your phono pre's output impedance of 2k ohms will properly drive one.

Ask Dave.
