Who bought my PS Audio Receptacles this morning, I Already spent the cash and bought (1) pair of MIT Shotgun S1 1m Interconnects to be used between my Denon 3910 & Pre-Amp

Congrats bud!

Don't forget to give them time to burn in.

Thanks!

And I have to figure out the input impedance of my Onkyo Receiver

It's a TX-NR801


I found this pdf but I don't know what to look for:

http://www.intl.onkyo.com/downloads/product_info/pdf/tx-nr801_leaflet.pdf


I guess it's on this list:

Input Sensitivity and Impedance
Line.............................................. ..... 200 mV/50 kΩ (CD, Tape, DVD, VIDEO 1-5)
Phono ............................................... 2.5 mV/50 kΩ (MM)
Multichannel ..................................... 200 mV/50 kΩ (DVD, except for Subwoofer) 36 mV/50 kΩ (Subwoofer)
Digital input Coaxial .......................... 0.5 Vp-p/75 Ω

So what setting do I use on the MIT's ?, High, Med or Low?

Congrats ! I bet you will be very pleased ! I have 2 sets of the S3 in my system now and love them. Speaker cables next.

Input specs per the manual

Input sensitivity and impedance
PHONO: 2.5 mV, 50 kΩ
LINE (CD, TAPE, DVD,
VIDEO 1-5): 200 mV, 50 kΩ
MULTICHANNEL INPUT
(FRONT L/C/R, SURROUND
L/R, SURROUND
BACK L/R): 200 mV, 50 kΩ
(SUBWOOFER): 36 mV, 50 kΩ
COAXIAL 1, 2, 3 (DIGITAL):
0.5 Vp-p, 75 Ω
DVD, VIDEO 1, 2, 3, 4, 5: 1 Vp-p, 75 Ω (Composite Video)
1 Vp-p, 75 Ω (S-Video, Y signal)
0.28 Vp-p, 75 Ω (S-Video, C signal)
COMPONENT VIDEO 1, 2: 1 Vp-p, 75 Ω (Y)
0.7 Vp-p, 75 Ω (PB/CB, PR/CR)

Looks like you want the middle setting since I think you will be using the 50Kohms input for CD or Phono.

The Adcom is 47Kohms.

I guess you could use the low setting as well. Looks like the Low and Medium have overlap that would cover both the Onk and Adcom pre.

I am using middle setting for the Adcom.

I'd recommend the mid setting as well.

Thanks TH!!

Does MIT have products manuals that can be downloaded?

I wanted to start reading about the S1's
