Hi guys,
I want to connect my CD Player (Yamaha CDP-630e) directly to the power amp section of my Audiolab 8200A integrated amp. That is, I want to bypass the pre of the amplifier. Because when I did this same with my CXN streamer’a output (the CXN has a volume control that can be activated through settings), the sound’s refinement/clarity went up significantly. And I want the same improvement with my CD player’s output. I don’t want to route the digital out from the CDP through the streamer’s DAC and volume control. I tried that, but then I lose the musicality (tonality & microtones) of the TD 1541A DAC which was the very reason I bought the vintage Yamaha CDP.
So, can you suggest some kind of a volume pot, not too costly, that I can take the analogies signal from the CD player through into the power amp? Something that doesn’t affect the signal/sound adversely and just acts as a volume control.
Thanks.
