I'm planning on making a passive preamp using a stepped attenuator, but what value resistors are best to go for? A friend of mine has used a 50k but I read an article on enjoythemusic.com that suggested that 10k was a better option. There's a seller from hong kong on ebay that I plan to buy from; tube_buyer.....seems cheap enough at about £17 delivered!
