This subject was beaten to dead on many forums. For best sound quality the DCX MUST be feed with a hot (high level) digital signal. Please look at : http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=15943&perpage=10&highlight=&pagenumber=1 I'm using 4 way configuration with two DCX2496. I added a 6 gang potentiometer to the DCX . All of my amplifiers have volume controls. Playing with this potentiometer and the amplifiers's controls I can set the relative levels between the amplifiers and set the potentiometer in the DCX in order to use the the SB volume control for fine tunning say from 87/100 to full volume. For volume control you can look at Endler's potentiometers http://mysite.verizon.net/vze4c5pt/id11.html or this French 6 ways volume control: http://www.selectronic.fr/international.asp Chris -- krzys ------------------------------------------------------------------------ krzys's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2256 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33217 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
