Attenuator recommendations


Hi, I am having some issues with either my cdp output level (6 vrms) or amp input sensitvity. Either way, I think I need to get an inline attenuator. I would prefer to get the very best attenuator available that does not degrade the signal in any way. I am absolutely new to this so I would appreciate any feedback. By the way, I need XLR and RCA.

Thank you...

Tboooe, you need to re-read Herman's last post. Gain structure is the most fundamental element in system building (synergy). If the components you select are not compatible, then there is nothing you can do that will correctly "fix" the problem. In the context of a high end system an in-line attenuator between your main source and your premap just doesn't cut it.
Tboooe, adding an attenuator to your system isn't "wrong", it's just inelegant. You have a really fine collection of components and you should try to get the system right rather than kind of get it right and then apply what is effectively a band aid solution. Just my opinion.
