BeePre Output transformer advice

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has used or recommends a output transformer for the BeePre?

I recently added 10K:10K transformers to the output of my DAC after the output cap and it did wonders for the sound.

What would you like to accomplish by adding a transformer?  (a big part of why the BeePre sounds the way it does is the lack of output transformers)

No reason other than it benefited my DAC. True, it will probably change the way it sounds.

Generally, a 1:1 transformer at the output of a component is pretty uncommon.  It's more common to see some step-down, which can help with driving long cables.

What is the output impedance of your DAC?

It's completely reasonable to add 10K:10K input transformers to the BeePre.  We left holes on the chassis that will accommodate several different transformers.
