I know that Pass Labs preamps drives both the xlr and rca outputs and manual says it’s okay to use them simultaneously.
Pass Labs XP-25 Outputs
I am currently trying out a Pass Labs XP-25 phono stage and enjoying what I am hearing, particularly with an MC Step Up Transformer feeding into it vice using the MC settings available.
I do have a question which I could not answer from reading the manual. As any XP-25 or 27 users will know it has a RCA and XLR output, with the RCA output being 6db less gain. The question Is, is it possible to have both outputs connected to a preamp RCA and XLR inputs accordingly and switch between them on your preamp (adjusting the volume of course) to see what you prefer?

@alan60 , yes you can connect both the single ended and xlr outputs of the Xp-25 to your preamp (both outputs are live at the same time) BUT, most preamps will only let you select one input at a time, therefore, you can only toggle back and forth between rca and xlr. Was that your question? |
