The Granite Audio 657 has a variable output tube stage adjustable from 0-30v on the back of the player. It's ideal with my passive linestage and sounds better going through it rather than direct to the amp. Also, you can tweak the sound with various pairs of 6922 type tubes. Excellent player!
Cd players with variable output?
I'd like to purchase an amplifier and a cd player with variable output so that I can avoid buying a pre-amp. I only listen to cd and don't want to spend money on components that I don't seem to need. Now to the question.
Is the Quad CDP the least expensive "quality" cd player with variable output, or "volume control?"
