Hi everyone I just discovered Slimdevices and Slimserver 1 month ago but I really like what I see + hear; thanks for the great work :-)
I have a question though; As I read in the forums, the best sound quality from the Slimdevices is achived by going from Slimserver -> SB3-digitalout / soundcard digital out -> DAC -> preamp+power amp/integrated amp. I would like to hide my sound equipment away and control it all from a PDA, and therefore I would like to be able to adjust the volume of the preamp through the Slimserver web-interface or one of the other Slimserver interface applications. I could adjust the volume level by adjusting the digital output and skip the preamp but as I understand from other threads that would degrade the sound quality of the digital output. Does anyone have an idea on how the volume of a preamp/integrated amp could be adjusted by the Slimserver when the volume of the SB3/Softsqueeze is adjusted? My idea is to: 1.Use a preamp with ability to adjust volume level (for instance a preamp with RS232 interface), and link that to the Slimserver volume control settings. Does that exist at all? 2.Control the volume of an ordinary preamp with a motor. The motor should be controlled from the Slimserver volume control settings. For instance using a very simple preamp eg. http://mysite.verizon.net/vze4c5pt/id2.html Does anyone have experience using a similar approach?
