Quick Question on resistive passive pre-amps
« on: 23 Dec 2006, 03:17 am »
Do resistive passive preamps have an easier or harder time driving solid state amps when compaired to tube amps?

Thanks in Advance :)

Harder time, in general.  The most important parameters are the output Z (impedance) of the source and the input Z of the amp - tube amps usually have much higher input Z than SS, by a factor of 10 or 20.
