Thanks for the reply! Ill grab it for now and maybe change to something different later. This is to my 2 channel speakers, but Ill be using it in my bedroom surround sound after I get that worked out

I see the difference in impedance, what will it change?

Will this work? https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Monitor1--behringer-monitor1-passive-stereo-monitor-and-volume-controller...

Im afraid IDK the difference in speaker level and line level. Is it the volume control range is limited in the niles? EDIT I see it has 60w max and a max 42db attenuation. My amp has way more output potential than 60 watts. I see the difference now The Pac is only RCA based, but maybe theres...

The E70 does have an analog volume knob on it, I need an additional safeguard beyond that? Are we talking something like a Niles SVL-1? I can get one of those really cheap

Ended up with a Topping E70 and a VTV NCx500 Have a few Speaker builds in the works, but till then Ill be running an old project off this setup. Silver Flute 6.5" 4 ohm and the Dayton RS29F-4 (the real ones)

Yes I added the 12V trigger option! Not sure if I could hear the difference between the NORE, NCORE MP, and NCOREx I wanted the Purifi 7040SA, but I am not a rich person

Ordered Topping E70 and VTV 2-channel Hypex NCx500. Excited for them to arrive! Ill be building another set of speakers too, it will be the first Time I build from a kit though. HIVI Swans 2.2A, Ill start with the stock crossover and decide if I need to tweak from there after break in and if I...

Yeah I have 2 Denon AVRs and still plan to upgrade. First of all the 105 watts x7 Denon shows is with only 2 channels driven. They dont have nearly enough PSU to run them all close to that. Also 100 watts inst much, Id rather have 300+ watts and never need to use all of it, than worry about...

SMSL DO200 MKII vs Topping ES9028PRO? These are in my price range, the prior is on sale at Amazon

Thank you I remember people always saying the more components in the line the more introduced distortion. Maybe not as much of an issue with newer high end components tho. Cool! Might do that to save till I can get all the pieces

Will there be a lesser output potential from the DAC to amp compared to a real preamp? I dont know if there are gain differences or different output voltages that might not be the same. If I had a DAC and a pre-amp then where do I set DAC volume, and does that have higher potential volume, and...

I have used a Denon receiver for years. but now I am buying some nicer amp(s) and need a preamp. Suppose could just use the Denon as a preamp, but I feel that might lessen or defeat the benefit from the NCx500 amps? Anyway its confusing to me when looking at DACs and pre-amps. I have a very...

Ads are not just annoying and a waste of time, usually play louder than the program and that pisses me off the most

I have Youtube premium and Netflix 4k, both went up in price, Netflix 2x within a yr I believe. No patience for spam, so no FM radio in the last 15 or 20 yrs at all or me
