The preamps are very low source imp outs (cathode follower on one and about 100 to 1k on the other). I thought someone might know of a matching circuit I...
The easiest thing to do is turn on your cassette or reel to reel deck and set it to source monitoring. The electronics should be extremely transparent for...
Hello D Sorry to be so late in responding. Nearly all integrated/power amps and receivers with headphone outputs just connect them to the speaker outs through...

I just got my Zen SE84C amp in and running it. It sounds a bit different than my Assemblage ST-40. It's only been a few hours with new tubes, so I can't say...
