Al - thanks for the follow up. I did some on-line reading after posting and found similar info as in your explanations for interpreting the measured impedance values and scale upper limits being multiples of 2. I can indeed take some further readings using the 200K scale setting. As noted previously, putting the Harrison Lab attenuators on the TEAC CDP outputs did give more usable volume control "range" on my pre-amp. None of my sources are tubed so if those low resistance numbers aren't likely to harm the TEAC, I'll continue to use them.
Passive & Tubed pre-amps to power amp at same time?
Would any harm be done by using a Y-splitter to simultaneously connect a passive pre-amp and tubed pre-amp to the same power amp? The idea would be to use the passive for volume control and run signal from a CDP to the power amp. The tubed pre would be used for sending other inputs (e.g., phono) to the power amp. All devices would be "powered up" at the same time but only one input at a time would be used. Thanks in advance.
