Does using fixed passive attenuators (-13dB in my case) count as going direct or not? IMHO eliminating an active preamp can often improve quality, but only if the gain staging is correct - and that usually involves adding some passive attenuators.

That's fairly low (power amp input impedances are more typically around the 50kOhm mark), but I've not suffered any degradation from the addition of the attenuators. -- cliveb Transporter -> ATC SCM100A ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55246 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
