Very informative reply Al, greatly appreciated. When I plug in the input impedances of my amp and and headphone amp to the equation I get 13.5k ohms for the combined input impedance. So its definitely more than 10x the listed 560 ohm output impedance of the preamp, but not if in fact sometimes increase to 2-3k as you mentioned. What do you think?
rewiring preamp will it work
Hello,
I currently have a AES AE-3 DJH preamp. I absolutely love it, but I recently decided to get more into headphone audio, and now need two RCA outputs on my preamp. I was wondering if it would be possible for me to rewire it two have two sets of RCA outs instead of one (one of the input RCAs could be rewired as an output since I only use one input)? I was just going to disconnect the wires on the output and instead connect it in parallel with the original output. I just wanted to check with you guys if this would actually work, or would it cause any problems with the preamp.
Thanks so much,
I appreciate it,
Ron
