;) Hi, i'm confusing about choose the right potensio's value. Usually people using 50k pot (assumed they don't use a preamp). In a basic theory, max value of the input's pot will give the best result, there is no drop voltage.It's necessary to keep our GC to have HI-Z in.
But, why GC'ers using 50k/20k as an input pot?Why they don't use a higher value like 100k/1M?
Using a lower value will causing drop voltage?is it right?
Need ur opinion please:confused: :smash:
 
Correction it is Rf1 wich is recommended to be between 10 and 100k... lthough it does warn against big values for RIN

...page14



"The desired input impedance is set by RIN. Very high values
can cause board layout problems and DC offsets at the
output. The value for the feedback resistance, Rf1, should be
chosen to be a relatively large value (10 kÙ–100 kÙ), and
the other feedback resistance, Ri, is calculated using standard
op amp configuration gain equations."
