You can get high grade hand made stepped attenuators here Endler attenuators. The cost is relatively cheap compared to other companies but the quality is second to none.You just have to know what to look for in this hobby to keep from getting ripped off.Using these in the PVA should give great results if the cd players output impedance is low enough.
Can a simple DIY volume knob replace a pre-amp?
If I have only a cd (single source, can I make a simple volume knob instead getting a pre? Since it is simpler and "pure", will the sound better? I know Pre-amp will do some gain on the signal, what is the benefit to have that gain? I am shopping for a pre-amp and come across some people said that a simple volume can replace the pre. Thanks.
