you'd get better results that way.

*** You're going to be taking a receiver output of either 3.2 or 8
ohms, and going to a line input with an impedance of 50k or more. 

I use a simple audio output transformer which has inputs of 3.2 and 8 (
use whichever applies ) and outputs of 500, 1000, 2000 or more ohms -
if you can do 5k or 10k so much better. But 2k will work just fine.
