Transformers for outputs
10/06/22 at 20:14:21

I want to use a pair of Jensen's really nice transformers to send the output of my new CSP3 to the xlr inputs on a pair of Vidar amps to monoblock them. Previously I’ve had experience taking single ended hi-z lines and balancing them for a 600 ohm inputs to consoles or sending hi-z lines long distance by using that same transformer at both ends, i.e. wireless to pedal board. The CSP3 lists <600 ohms single ended for the output and Schiit lists 22K ohms balanced for their inputs (44k single ended); this is the polar opposite of the Jensen listings. Anyone have an idea where I can look?

You just have to tell the builder which one you want. But I think this one is built for SE -> bal. as standard.

Hi Edward,

I still enjoy the ZStage I purchased from you last year, an excellent unit.

There is another Forum discussion on the Pine Tree Audio that you might find helpful. I purchased their ZBIT-like unit, and it serves me well - I highly recommend it. It has been one of my best buys of the year, with no waiting line and half the price of my ZBIT. Jesse was able to customize my purchase from several different configuration options.
