buffered vs. unbuffered outputs?


The McCormack TLC passive pre-amp has both buffered and unbuffered outputs. Anyone know the difference? And what is the effect on the musical
sound? Thanks

I had the TLC-1 and DNA 0.5 deluxe. To my ears, the passive (unbuffered) output was decisively superior. Like Pubul57 said, the input impedance of your amp can easily handle a passive. In fact, I believe Steve McCormack designed it that way.
