Tvad,
I think I recall you indicating in prior discussions that you believe higher amp input impedance generally leads to directly observable improved bass performance, or something to that effect, which technically sounds viable to me.
In that case, 30K ohms is a lot closer to the low end for SS amps I have seen (about 10K ohms) than it is the max I have seen (about 200K ohm balanced).
It would be more of a factor for higher output impedance tube pre-amps than lower impedance SS pre-amps.
