100% and then use the preamps level would be better. 50% is to little , sbs uses a 24bit digital volume control so it's quite good, but 50% would be to close for comfort.
100% if you have a volume controll in the preamp this would maximise snr ratio on the Touch. I'm not sure of the spec re output voltage bu the Touch at full tilt 100% should compare roughly with any CD player and you dont use volume on those. Historically squeezeboxes have had sensible output levels not extremely quit nor to much output. If you have an vintage preamp of some kind maybe a analog attentuator at input would be usefull, some older preamps could have very sensitive inputs -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE for the rear ch.
