Hello fellow obsessives of musical alchemy,
I write asking for advice on volume adjustment on my digital stream. I currently have been using Roon’s volume adjustment for music listening, “device volume”, using my nagra streamer’s device volume to lower the volume from 100%.
This I think has sounded alright. Though I wonder as my system is reaching a very delicious degree of resolution, if I should consider a different device to control my volume… Hoping that a device that sits just before my amp that solely controls volume with a remote, would sound better than Roon’s device volume with my nagra streamer.
What do you all think? Do you use Roon’s “device volume” without any sound deficit? Or do you use an analogue volume adjustment device right before your amp?
My setup has proven to be very very revealing:
Nagra Streamer —> Soulenote D1 DAC —> Decware Zbit 2 —> Decware Zrock 3 —> Decware 300b Zen Amp —> Pure Audio Project Duet 15 horns
What do you all think?
Thanks all for your advice!
