Will I have any issues with this? According to the specs of the CV-1800, it has input level trim controls, so you should be fine - no need to mess about with external passive attenuators.
Start by turning the volume controls on both the Transporter and amp right down, and start playing something. Then bring the TP's volume up to maximum. Now slowly turn up the volume on the power amp until playback is as loud as you'd ever want. Leave the amp's input level control at that position, and then use the TP's volume control for day-to-day adjustments. PS. Cerwin-Vega as a company have a reputation of building products that go very loud without too much finesse. Their speakers in particular are renowned for being rather uncouth. I have no idea what their amps are like, but bear in mind that they might be cut from the same cloth! -- 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=74776 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
