That's just a physical splitter right, like bifrost didn't like driving whatever was on the other end in parallel? Or are you saying it sounds better with some other generic rca splitter?
I guess maybe it doesn't operate optimally with the 2 devices in parallel.
TBH I have very little experience using these kinds of splitters for splitting a dac to multiple amps, I've only really used them in like signal gen -> scope probe/amp input kind of situations. Even a passive probe at 10Mohm/10pf affects the signal a little bit...
I would have thought it was okay most of the time though.
I've done exactly the same with SW51 and Night Blues Mini (basically ZDT Jr.). Couldn't hear any difference compared to 1:1 connection.
forum.bottlehead.com says BHC has an 100k input Z. Can't seem to find same for SW51.
Output device has a fan-out drive limitation. The two amps may have different input impedances which combined causes some issues with the output device.
