Analog audio is a lumped-circuit-based system that doesn't require any impedance matching, unless you're running over 6-mile interconnects...

Why isn't this discussed more around here?

Impudence mismatch is one of the more common reasons for communications breakdown.

Impudence matching is when a new member stans fancy cables or DACs and the usual suspects go after them.

“Beliefs are hypotheses to be tested, not treasures to be guarded." - Philip Tetlock
"Scientifically improbable claims require scientifically impeccable evidence" - Me.
”We have been drawing attention….to the absolute necessity to separate the quantitative judgement of audio from the qualitative judgement by removing loudness as a bias. It has been ignored, and the audiophile business carrys on its own merry way. Those who work in sound professionally know that this is lesson 1 semester 1 in audiology: the very core of the science. So we have given up trying to educate on this point, as every audio engineer has eventually done over the last half century, as the usual audiophile has an emotional need which cannot be reached by logic, reasoning and science.” - Alan Shaw

6-mile interconnects would be massively impudent.
