You are the best. Keep blowing our minds.

Sorry to get OT but how do you feel about Mid-Fi Electronics? He seems to be the only guy who isn't tring to make some sort of Fuzz Factory clone or out weird your original. None other to your standards and sound quality of course.

Hi,
I have two diffrent sets of speakers.
One is a pair of Genelic 1029A combined with the Subwoofer 1091A, which is powerfull and very clear, but handsome, because the speakers are very small.
The other set, which i use mainly, is a pair of ADAM P11-A. All i can say is wow! I know, they are not very cheap, and it could be a hard invest for a hobby musician, because with speakers alone, you can't make music, but if you listening to the clear bright sound of some professional speakers you will never look back to the money you had spent!
One thing, i bought the Mackie Big Knob, which give you a fantastic control to your computer based DAW and speaker setup. I would say, the Big Knob is worth the money, even if you have just one pair of speakers.

So cool...
Sorry for the bonehead question, I'm not a EE.

I noticed that's got a line input. Do you need a matching transformer to hook a voyager up to it? My understanding was that instuments were always high-Z, and the Voyager works fine hooked up to my old bass amp (also high-Z).

BTW the owner's manual does not state the output impedence, among many other things.

actually, most synth outputs are relatively low impedance. it sounds like a great application for the iMP, to me! 8^)

most of the time you can plug low impedance sources into high-impedance inputs and they'll work alright. it's not necessarily the best approach for noise, but it generally works.
