Please confirm this set-up is a good one (just for music entertainment) before I order more unnecessary cables
My DAC (Soncoz SGD1) has simultaneous XLR (balanced) and RCA (unbalanced) outputs...
If possible I would like to run:
XLR output impedance: 200 Ohm (4V)
RCA output impedance: 100 Ohm (2V)
Studio monitor input impedances (XLR):
Genelec 8030C: 10 kOhm
Kali LP-6v2: ? kOhm (I guess 10 or 20 kOhm, have emailed Kali)
Subwoofer (SVS SB-1000 Pro) input impedance (RCA): 16 kOhm
+
I understand a passive Y-splitter should be fine for line level, because output impedance is low and input impedances are high.
I just want to confirm that this connection set-up will work well (DAC to 2 sets of speakers and subwoofer).
And a question... If the Kali monitors turn out to have an input impedance of 20 kOhm, and the Genelec monitors 10 kOhm - will their volumes be much different? (coming from a Y-split 200 Ohm DAC output)
Thank you.

- DAC XLR output - to 2 sets of studio monitors through a passive Y-splitter (simultaneous multi-room)
- DAC RCA output - to a subwoofer for one of the rooms
