If you have a power amp with a lot of gain, you need external attentuation to preserve S/N ratio. Without it, you will definitely hear noise when SB volume is turned down and SB analog stage noise (of which their is a lot) is still blasting at full crank. SB should be cranked to 40 whenever sound quality matters. It is still handy to be able to turn it down over the web though!
Don't forget your interconect impedence when adding passive attenuation after the SB. It should be low as possible and cable short as possible to avoid cutting off highs -- richidoo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ richidoo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3097 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25792 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
