Why don't they all make preamps and integrateds like that? Recently I got Redgum integrated with volume control for each channel. What a difference. You just do it by ear for every recording or even individual tune. Simple and great idea.
We have ears to match levels. Preamp with single control and power amp with dual gain controls should be fine too, right? Is it the same or not as having dual volume controls on the preamp? The result, I mean.
That's great if you're listening to mono recordings, but how do you know where to set the relative balances if the channels are different? Maybe some of the sounds are supposed to be off center. It would be hard to set stereo recordings by ear until you have spent quite a bit of time listenign to the recording. By then you've spent too much time obsessing and too little time enjoying.
Inna, for what ever reason; you're right about that right channel thing. I "always" dial into the center channel, and everything else falls into place.
