The only problem with this approach is that the SB2's output level, at
about 6V pp, is way too high for comfortable listening, unless the
fixed gain of the amp is significantly reduced. Obviously, since your
mods bypass the SB2's 2x output gain stage completely, you probably
wouldn't suffer this problem.

Hi Patrick,
Yes, the 6Vpp output is too high, but the mods bring it down to 3Vpp,
which allows for a much more useful range of the 40-step volume
control.
You can try to attenuate the output with resistors until you find the
level of attenuation that works best with your chipamps. Could be
fun... :-)
Vinnie,
Would you consider posting details of your mods so that those of us who
can wield a soldering iron can have a go ourselves?
