So ribbon mics have a very low output impedance, but it's advised that the preamps input impedance shouldn't be matched to that, but about 10-15x higher at least.
But I can't find ANY actual useful resources on this beyond "Do it like this because this is how its meant to be done"
So, why should the impedance be so much higher? What actual effects does it have on the sound of the mic?
