What is the input impedance of your power amp? Is it more likely it's an impedance matching problem if you're finding a passive resistor pre isn't doing the trick maybe a TVC will (an autoformer type will be more even handed if what Max Townshend told me was true, on the other hand that's the type he sells).
Goldring - Audio Note - Roksan ?
I am looking to replace my Grado reference master cartridge that has an output of 5mV
with one with that has a higher output , contrary to the direction of most cartridge makers .
I am using a passive preamp , so maybe I'm being stuborn with my less ( electronics ) is more ,
at the same time I am trying to increase the output voltage of my Tavish Designs Adagio phono amp .
Goldring , Audio Note and Roskan all have an output of 6.5mVs , I've read where the A N is built by Goldring
and it looks like the Roskan is also .
Has anybody had experience , thoughts or opinons with any of these ?
Thanks
