Sonic Super T-Amp.  Sweet.  Cheap.  See review below from 6-moons and
link to partsexpress.

I have one for my outdoor speakers and it sounds great, is small and
inexpensive.

Vote for bugzilla enhancement #2133 which requests 13 band firmware
equalization added to slimserver/sb2.

I requested this of Slim about a month ago

 Davey.

Can we infer from the graph then that if you set preamp volume control
to 10 (-10db atten), then the output at sb2 player volume setting 40
would change to 0.588 vout instead of 1.86 vout (full output)?

Also then, if preamp vol out set to 10, would the level at sb player
volume setting 35 be an additional atten of -6.26db for a total db
atten of -16.26 and vout of 0.286?

Just wondering as my amp has input sensitivity of 388 Mv.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Re: SB2: reduce analog out voltage by 10x?

2005-09-15 Thread rme

Any suggestions as I have very little idea how to optimally set this new
function.

I have nuforce amps and the specs say: max input voltage=1.2V,
Gain=26db, Input Impedance: 47K ohm, SNR = 120 db at 100W.

Any help would be appreciated.

Right now without applying the updated firmware and slimserver update,
volume 1 is low, 2 is normal, 3 is loud and everything from 4-40 is way
too loud.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Re: SB2: reduce analog out voltage by 10x?

2005-09-09 Thread rme

Does this change for volume control degrade the quality of the stream? 
I saw a prior thread on analog volume reductions dropping bits.  

This sounds like it is changing voltage instead so I have no idea of
whether it's changing the data or is truely like a preamp volume
control.

Thanks for any insight into this.
