Manual volume means the AI has two volume knobs, one for each L&R channel, so they are also the balance control. I used to have one and it quickly became second nature to turn them together.Maybe, but some AI preamps have three knobs. One is labeled as volume and the other two are labeled as left and right. How does that work?
Looking for the best Preamp with a phono circuit built in
I have been using a Belles 28A preamp with a built-in phono circuit for about 10 years...no complaints but I'm getting to the point of wanting to make some quality audio system purchases that will stick with me for the long haul. I'm 66 years old and not made of money; just want to relax and listen to the music. I really don't want to go the separate phono pre / base pre route. Please offer suggestions.
I live in Minneapolis and thus far at the top of my list is the Van Alstine (local company) Fet Valve CFR Preamplifier for about $2500.
I thank you for your feedback!
