Peachtree Decco Preamp Issue????

It sounds as though you are doing everything right. The Decco seems to be the culprit.

i have the decco as a pre with a emotiva amp and it performs fine. i suspect the decco has an output issue. do you have another amp or a friend who can bring one over to just test with?

No, I'm the only person I know that has this obsession with audio equipment.

: )

I am going to wait and talk with the Signalpath folks this coming week. It just bites because I have been so excited about adding the external amp.

I will say that even though I have to turn the volume pot up...I can tell this amp sounds really good. Seems more liquid and refined. I can actually hear the vibration from the guitar pick moving across the strings on "Brother" from the Alice in Chains "Unplugged" recording.

"I've always thought that this live recording was one of the best sounding ever!"

: )

have you solved this issue yet? just curious. thanks john

the decco volume control is designed that way.

i used my decco with various power amps & 12 oclock position to 3 o clock is very normal.

Peachtree rep Jim Spainhour told me that this is normal in their design, it has tiny increments so that the right volume is dialed in.

No issues....
