Esoteric X-03se owners - feedback please thanks teajay! I have read your review and enjoyed it very much. I will definitely check out the Accustic Arts. As for my ordeal with preamps...I guess I am just a glutton for punishment! Seriously, I will make it a goal to check out the Placette ... | |
Attenuator recommendations courtvision21, yes I have adjusted it all the way down (-40) and the fixed output is off.downunder and herman...now that makes sense. thanks for the patience and helping me understand what is happening. Your responses are very similar to a what BA... | |
Attenuator recommendations herman...chill out dude...explain me this:my classe gain is 14dbthe bat is 17dbperhaps I am understanding but I cannot imagine that a 3db difference in gain would result in the huge difference in volume I am hearing... | |
Attenuator recommendations courtvision21, yes I have tried adjusting the BAT's "Relative Volume" for the cd input. It did make a difference though I find I am stuck at the 2-3 volume setting. I have tried another cdp that outputs 1.7v and the volume from the BAT is still to... | |
Preamp output voltage...affect on volume??? I got a response from BAT that explains the difference in volume control between my Classe preamp and the VK-52se even though they both have similar gain. I guess it comes down to digital volume control (Classe) vs discrete volume control (BAT). B... | |
Preamp output voltage...affect on volume??? Ok, I found out the gain of the classe is 14db, the bat is 17db. any ideas? | |
Preamp output voltage...affect on volume??? Ok, I switched to the single ended output on my Cary which is supposed to be at 3vrms. And even though the volume has decreased by a bit, it is still pretty loud even with the preamp at the lowest possible setting. Also, the output impedance of th... | |
Preamp output voltage...affect on volume??? herman, i was told by BAT that the max gain is 17db. I am going to check the gain for the classe today...i will report back. | |
Preamp output voltage...affect on volume??? herman, I currently have the Classe CP-700 pre. The other pre I am auditioning is the new BAT VK-52se. | |
CDP voltage output...what does it mean to volume? Thanks Peak. So something playing 10db less will sound half as loud? In other words 75db sounds half as loud as 85db? | |
Preamp output voltage...affect on volume??? Ok, so if this is the case, why does preamp a (50 vrms) play significantly louder than preamp b (20 vrms)? Is all due to the gain??? I am really confused because the only thing I have changed in my system is the preamp I am auditioning and the sou... | |
Preamp output voltage...affect on volume??? I realized I aksed my question incorrectly. What I am wondering is if given the conditions described above, will the preamp that outputs 50 vrms sound louder than the preamp that outputs 20 vrms, assuming both are set at the same volume level???? | |
Attenuator recommendations onhwy61...i do understand herman;s post. That is why I said I would either have to find another pre or use an attenuator (which is not desirable).I was just trying to make sure I understand what is causing this volume issue so i know what to look ... | |
Attenuator recommendations I think I figured out what is going on though I am not sure.First, my cdp output is 6vrms which is much higher than the 2-3vrms that I usually see for other cdp.Second, the max output of the pre I am auditioning is 50vrms while my current pre max ... | |
Do BAT preamps run HOT? Thanks everyone. I will let you know how the 52 sounds after it breaks in a bit. |
