I'm somewhat embarassed to post this, but I'm hoping someone here can help me understand how to hookup a Jeff Rowland Coherence One preamp into my system!
I just bought this unit off Audiogon, and happened to look at a picture of the rear and it has what looks like dual rca's for each input/output.....making them balanced supposedly.
Here's a quote from an Absolute Sound article that describes the setup:
"The Rowland accomplishes polarity reversal, not by adding another stage in series with the line output, but rather by allowing you to switch between either of two output stages-one that does not invert polarity or one that does. This elegant approach also provides two sets of outputs – one inverting and the other is non-inverting, which can be paralleled to drive balanced lines"
I have Bryston 7b's, which have both balanced and single ended rca's on the back.
I think I can simply use rca's OR run this somehow balanced, but I don't remember seeing any cables that go from two rca's down to one balanced XLR.
Thanks for any feedback
