Hey all,
Next week I’m going to use an RCA 44BX into an old Concord transistorized 220 mono reel to reel (yes it has the built in speaker!). The input on the reel to reel was designed for hi-z crystal mics, so will this work to match impedance? http://www.americanmusical.com/Item--i-AUD-CP8201
Also, if I decide I need more gain, & first go into an external preamp, what should I use? That Audio-technica adapter has an input impedance of 250 ohms, and an output impedance of 50K ohms. For the output of an external mic preamp (line level output) would I need a transformer with an input impedance of 20K, and output around 50K?
Thanks!
