Rutherfoord4 Points of Reflection At interconnect (but neglect this) Off distributed Ohmic resistance of cable At coupling capacitor At transformer (but neglect this except for sick channels) At vacuum and pedestal cables At imperfect matching of preamp input impedance to cable At many other smaller (negligible?) locations
