Default Passive Attenuator

I've been using a passive attenuator for my CD player for awhile.

This article indicates that may not be a great idea...

http://www.elecdesign.com/Articles/A...109/14109.html

The line that caught my eye..."This plainly showed the amount of the
distortion, such as 71.45 nV at 2.2 kHz, with a 10k load. (It degraded
to 200 nV with a 1k load.) ".

I have no idea whats on the output of my AMC CD-9...probably not an
LM4562....but loading it up whatever it is, may not be a great idea.
