So the Beta 22 is still not finished... Initially I wanted to build a 3 boards, but now I pretty much have a balanced source (CEC 5300), a really good balanced interconnect (Transparent Musiclink Plus), and the only thing missing is add one board on the Beta 22, and another sigma board + toroid, and I'll have a sweet balanced set up!
Here's the question though:
On 4 boards Beta22, does that mean that if I run a SE phones, then it's running on 2 boards only (passive ground)? That would suck, wouldn't it?
I thought about it and the solution would be to build a 5 boards Beta22:
1 board - Left +
1 board - Left -
1 board - Right +
1 board - Right -
1 board - Active Ground (SE config)
or.. 6 boards (like outlined in the "options" section of the AMB website)..
but I haven't seen anyone build a 6 board version.. the cost and complexity!
Anyway, I really2 don't want to spend the money for 5 or 6 boards.. and so if I go 4 boards, how bad can the SE out be?
What does other 4 boards user do?
Thanks!
