NIOA VS-880 TIP 100-0004:

Unbalanced Inputs and Low-Z

The VS-880 inputs are UNBALANCED, and are susceptible to noise. Keep the cables to the VS-880 inputs as short as absolutely possible.

The input impedance (Z) of the VS-880 is on the order of 10,000 to 20,000 ohms (low-Z), which means that a pre-amp is recommended to help preserve the tone of high impedance instruments such as guitar and bass.
