Hi, my son gave me a pair of JBL 305P MK2's and I want to use them with my Sony X95J TV until I get a proper home theatre system. I've tried connecting via optical to a Schiit DAC I already have that has XLR outputs and it works BUT the only way I can control volume is via the speakers themselves, or in an optical output level setting that is buried deep in the TV menu. So, what I want is a DAC that has XLR (or TRS) outputs and a pre-amp function with volume adjustable via the remote control. I can see Topping has a few options but all seem quite pricey for an interim solution. Any recommendations?
