How can I make Naim 272 Preamp/Network Streamer and Mcintosh C2500 work together?

DumA$$ me bought a Naim Preamp with streamer thinking i could use the network streamer only when connecting to my Mcintosh C2500. They both work together but I'm having a hard time balancing volume on Naim preamp with volume on Mcintosh. I want the Mcintosh as my prime pre-amp for volume control. Is there a fix?

First you may want to listen to the NAC 272 as a preamp it is shockingly good and you may find it better sounding then the Mcintosh. 

Second you can take the line level output which is fixed and viola you can listen to the sound of the streamer as an analog signal without volume which would be perfect for connecting to a preamp. 

We are Naim dealers so PM us if you have further questions.
