Sorry I didn't say anything about the range of use. Using the Neko DAC (which has a 1V output) as source and the 23 dB gain setting of the Bryston 3B-SST, a comfortable range for "serious" listening, mostly to classical music, is about 75 +/- 15 on the Touch volume, depending on the recording, while late evening listening might dip down to 45 or so. If the volume is too low at 100% for the rare recording, I can switch the Bryston to 29 dB gain. -- Daverz ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Daverz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77725 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
