I have a Bent 102MkII passive that passes signals from my source components to a McCormack amp. I will agree that passives are system dependent (what ain't?). In my system, talk of dynamic loss, thin sound, weak bass, etc. is just that, talk, and what I am glad NOT to be hearing when I spin a disc on the platter.
Preamps, Whats the difference, Active & Passive ?
Ok, so I'm a bit uninformed when it comes to this.
Is it that an active pre has bass and trebble controlls and a passive does not?
I lurk here in audiogon and read all that I can when I have questions.As a last resort I ask a question.
Is there an encyclopedia of audio terns somewhere on the web that I can access?
