Hello,
I’ve recently acquired a DAC that features fully balanced output, and have been looking to upgrade my cables for awhile now…
The thing is, my (tube) preamp has an output impedance of 325ohm single ended, and 650ohm balanced. My (ss) amp has in input impedance of 50kohm single ended and only 10kohm balanced.
Is there enough of a differential there for me to go balanced without having to worry about frequency rolloff? Or should I just order both single ended and balanced cable and let my ears be the arbiter here?
any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
