Adding A Remote to a Pre-Amp

I won't give an opinion regarding feasibility or sound effect/quality, not having used it, but Audio Electronic Supply (subsidiary of Cary) offers a remote control kit for preamps for around $200. Just call or e-mail. They are great folks to work with and very quick with help and suggestions. Good luck!

i would suggest contacting Michael Percy that might have in stock servo-remote-controlled stepped attenuator with 120steps 0.5db(only for your volume control!). watch $$$.

The Creek mentioned above is worth a try. The circuit gets out of the way when no remote signal is present, so it is like having nothing there at all. It's so passive, it's really just a volume control .

I'm using a Creek (OBH-12 actually) with my
ARC SP-6B. I tried placing it between the
preamp and amp and was NOT happy with the result.
However, placing it in the tape loop worked
like a charm. I don't use a tape machine, so
it was perfect for me.

Thank you everyone for your ideas and information. This place never fails to fill-in the many gaps in my knowledge.
