Different sound from inputs 1 and 2 on preamp


Does or has anyone observed that there is difference in sound between different imputs on the same preamp. I have discovered that with my Pass X1 my input balanced 1 sound different from my input balanced 2. They both sound good but they sound different.Is this normal and has anyone else noticed differences between their inputs sonically on their preamps.

The Audio Research LS15 sounded different from each input, very noticeable in quick a b change. My current preamps, VAC Renaissance and Classe DR5 do not exhibit this behavior. Pick the input you like best and use it.
I never switched to Jack Daniels, still drinking Jim Beam but changing the preamp did eliminate the input differences. In my case, the differences were of soundstage and image specivity not a frequency type change.
