I am trying a passive preamp with 2 sets of inputs 1 for phono and 1 for CD. I'm wondering if I should use the .47 or 1uf caps, I have the 1uf in now. I have tried the passive with the cornet and had to use resistors between the inputs and the pot, it's a 10k pot. I first tried a 10k resistor but lost a lot of hf, went with a 1.5k on one set of inputs and 5k on the other and compared between the two, 5k seemed to work best.
What is the best way of determining which resistors to use if the passive will even work for me. Right now it's an experiment, I have a cheapo $2.50 pot in it now. Am trying to figure out how to determine input and output impedances, but not much luck so far, not sure what my amps input impedance is, Modded Dynaco MK III's using Uncle Neds SDS and output boards.
BTW, the Cornet is working great now. fingers crossed I don't blow another tranny, though am hoping it was the bad rec tube.
