LAIV Harmony

@wengfai Thank you for introducing yourself.  Congratulations on the start-up of your new company and the success of the Harmony.  We appreciate the status update.  I see you have other products in development.  I'm looking forward to the introduction of your Streamer next year as well.

My biggest concern is the lack of a volume control.  What is the recommended way to remotely adjust the volume without altering the sound signature of the DAC?

@danager This passive pre was designed with you in mind…

Although I have tried my Directstream Dac directly to my amp (variable volume control ) . I must agree with Koestner . A great preamp is worth its weight in gold !!

Just my 2 cents worth .

hello @wengfai I really like my Harmony dac!

Waiting for news on your upcoming streamer.

@audiostick regarding fatigue, I never thought of it much but I would get tired of listening to music with my newer dac.  Don't know if its a known issue but with the LAiV I dont get fatigued; just run out of free hours to enjoy music.

Give it a shot, it is a very nice unit.  Even the packaging and presentation is superb.
