The psychological factor

My amp has no numbers or markings on its volume control and it drives me crazy trying to figure out what volume I’m on - it’s frustrating beyond belief. It Is the best sounding and most balanced amp I have ever had, but I’m so sick of using my ears, and not ultimately knowing it’s volume setting by just looking at it is killing me. So I’ve decided to replace it with an amp the volume of which I can actually see. ; )

kevn,

I sympathize with you.  When my preamp was out for repair I got one with a remote control, which I thought would be great.  But it drove me crazy not knowing what the level was.

I was kidding! 🤣

I love using my ears rather than my eyes : )

hilarious MillerCarbon. You guy’s are forgetting the cartridge output, phono stage gain setting, etc., plus if you have a remote control with the volume, of course the knob doesn’t move when you raise the volume on the remote.

Yeah, its one of the greats. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xgx4k83zzc Sad no one else gets it. Sadder still everyone pretending like it matters. Oh well.
