Hi all,
All the very popular vintage audio gear was designed with a 600 Ohm input and output impedance; the current thru all devices in a chain remained constant (matched impedance).
However a lot of solid state gear made nowadays has an input impedance which is at least 10 x higher than the output impedance (1 K input vs 100 Ohm output). The voltage over daisychained devices remains constant (Bridged impedance).
When I want to use a 600:600 ohm piece of gear in conjunction with my newer 1K:100 ohm gear, is there any need to use impedance converters to get an optimum result?
Please advice!
Many thanks in advance,
Rogy
