Input impedance for Simple SE?

I am about to start experimenting with PLLXO (passive line level crossover) and to select the right component values to start with, I need to know the input impedance of my Simple SE amp. I lack the tools to measure this properly myself.

Surely, someone here knows what the nominal input impedance of this amp is?

Thanks.
 
It's the value of the input tubes grid grid leak resistor (the pull-down resistor). Which is 220k, if you built it as shown on the Tubelab website.

If your using a volume control, place the cap between the potentiometers wiper and R11. Do the same for the other channel with R21.
