thanks for the response. i have seen that desribed in the other threads but i thought the bypass would alow the preamp to send thru it's signal with volume control at preamp and set the rotel at a standard volume. i use a tad 150 sig at work, but no current preamp in ht setup. love what the tubes in the preamp do to a digital front and and ss amp.
adding stereo preamp to rotel 1098 ht processor
can i do this using the 2ch bypass function by inserting a preamp in between the cd/dvd player analog outs and the processor? i don't beleive i am gettting the 2ch sound i could be. i use a cary dvd 6 as the player and have linn espek runing aktiv.
