Synergy between AR Ref 3 and Pass X amps


I am concerned about the compatibility of AR Ref 3 into Pass x-1000. The x-1000 has a low input resistance of 20kohm and have read that Ref 3 prefers amps with higher resistances. Any advice or experience?

Similarly, I was wondering how an ARC Ref 3 (output impedence 600 ohms balanced) would match with a Mac MC402 (input impedance 20,000 ohms balanced). But I imagine I would encounter similar difficulties as Tvad. I am currently using a BAT VK-31 SE (output impedence 300 ohms) with good results but the prices on the Ref 3 have come down considerably in anticipation of the Ref 5.
