Balanced/Unbalanced question Al mentioned:; and often a 6 db difference in system gain, which may have audibly significant consequences in some systems.+1Applies to TVCs. This was required in my system. I experienced this when I removed the RCA between the TVC and power amp, ... | |
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Stingreen,TVCs and LDRs are different I believe, compared to the traditional passives. I have tried a $4K preamp with my TVC and nothing was missing.But like many have said in these forums - it is all system dependent. | |
