These Rothwells look great, I consider them. Why 75-100, is this volume SB3 control digital, thus reducing resolution? Maybe you can also explain me, how is it with impedance matching. I've heard a lot of times, connecting power amp directly to the source using passive attenuator is a good test for how the setup will sound, but an active pre will make things much better because of proper impedance. But as I see it, output impedance of active preamps and source are similar. Is it a passive volume control which makes things wrong, or how does it work. If I put a passive volume control in between, is it like the output impedance of the source gets higher? Same with these Rothwells? -- azaz44 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ azaz44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81664 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
