Pass Aleph 30 + Placette Passive Pre OK?

I am planning on the following setup:

- MHDT Havana DAC: 2.6V @ 800 ohms output
- Placette RVC: 2 Kohm output resistance
- Pass Aleph 30: 47 Kohm input impedance
- 1M interconnects

Will this work? Please tell me yes; I just bought the pre. :)

You generally want the input impedance to be at least 20x the output impedance. More would be better, say 25-30x.

Hi, did the combo of Placette Passive Pre and MHDT Havana work? My integrated amp has a passive section and Havana has a high output impedance. I'm worried about the impedance mismatch. Thank you for any info/advice.

Yup, no problems there. Avoid very long runs of cables, though.
