The Levinson preamps like my 380S only apply gain when it is called for (about 19dB) based on the volume control position - from unity on down, the circuit actively buffers the inputs and outputs but applies no gain, and the sound does benefit. From what I've read, the forthcoming 320S will feature user-selectable gain including a 0 gain setting. All Levinson preamps of course are fully balanced with XLR I/O.
Does such a preamp exist?
My pre simply has too much gain. I need a pre with 0 gain, but without the impedance problem of a passive;
So, this preamp has 0 gain input buffer, passive volume and sourse select network, then 0 gain output buffer...I wonder if this kind of pre exsists? If yes, please tell me, I want one badly...my volume knob keeps at 7-8 o'clock and already too loud.
Oh, one more thing, it must have balanced output...I know this is so difficult, I've searched everywhere and got no result.
