Topic: UFX II mic input for MC phono - input impedance
Hi RME team,
I am considering getting rid of my (quite noisy) phono preamp and connecting my MC cartridge with the UFX II mic input and doing RIAA equalization via PC based convolution.
I am using fully balanced wiring between MC cartridge and phono preamp already, so that would not be an issue.
Input impedance of UFX II mic input however is 3.4 kOhm, and would need to be ideally 100 Ohm. Is there an easy way to adjust input impedance as seen by the cartridge (e.g. by adding resistors inside the XLR connectors on UFX side), and what would be the wiring scheme? Any pros/cons or things to consider?
