@dekay good question... I bought a cheap passive from Amazon that was xlr to try. It was the Nobsound Mini Fully-Balanced/Single-Ended Passive Preamp. The preamp doesn’t sound bad but a friend of mine brought over a Parasound C1 to try. We put it in direct/analog mode and connected via xlr. The sound difference was incredible with the biggest change in the wide soundstage. This has what started the path to invest in a good preamp. |
I bought a cheap passive from Amazon that was xlr to try. It was the Nobsound Mini Fully-Balanced/Single-Ended Passive Preamp. This is the circuit, for that Nobsound Fully Balanced. For it to be proper balanced the blue pot at the front would need 4 mono alps segments not 2 as it has it would be twice as long. https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1vwuRam3PL1JjSZFxq6ABBVXat/Mshow-Fully-Balanced-Passive-Preamp-board-H... Like this non encased rotary one https://goldpt.com/sa2x_in_600d.jpg Cheers George |
