If this is case, DO NOT use the processor loop on the ARC, as the processor loop removes the volume control from the circuit and will result in full volume going to the speakers with no control from the receiver or the pre-amp. In this case, using the tape out from the receiver, the ARC would be the volume control. "
Okay, that makes some sense now. When I had the Onkyo home theater unit running through the preamp processor loop the volume control on the preamp does not work and the 'volume' read-out on the Onkyo showed the volume in negative dB. Max volume (I never went there) would have been '0'.
Again, thanks to everyone. I can't wait to get back down there to listen to this system again.
Also, no internet at the cabin. Barely get a cell signal so no streaming services available.
