What does "needed" mean? You can make music with two coconuts, or one coconut and your head.
My understanding was that the preamp volume setting is a convenience for those that want to set the maximum volume level attainable with the remote or standard volume control lower than the maximum possible. You might want to do that to prevent someone from accidentally turning the volume up too high, for example. -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35642 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
