Parasound P7 then, or the JC 2 BP
I can attest that the P7 is pretty neutral and quiet, with an excellent remote and useful bass management. Kal Rubinson I think at Stereophile really likes it and uses it when his ARC multichannel pre is out.
The volume is digitally controlled, but analog. Steps are about 1.1 db or so per step. I measured this a long time ago and am hazy on the exact details. :)
