Re: Is this a good way to test pre-amp hiss of a digital recorder?

The difference between 200 ohms and 600 ohms is the square root of their ratios i.e.
sqrt 3 = 1.73 or 4.8dB. Between 150 ohms and 600 sqrt 4 = 2 or 6dB.

I asked for mreasurements, not theory. If I measure the noise of a
preamp with a 150 ohm resistor and a 600 ohm resistor at the input, can
I expect the noise to change by 6 dB? I can certainly measure that, and
I will report back.
