Hi, all,
I own an old Rhodes electric piano with magnetic pickups. I was delighted that the signal is strong enough that I can run it through my little Bravo headphone amp; for my purposes, it would be great to be able to double the Bravo as a practice amp for the piano.
The output impedance of the Rhodes is somewhere in the ballpark of 1000 ohms. My question is whether I'm going to damage the amp running it this way. I can obviously buy a solid-state preamp to make this a non-issue, but keeping the setup simple is attractive to me.
Thank you for any help/insight!
