It has a volume control so you can bypass the preamp. Sound is excellent for the money. I wish it had SACD too, but for redbook cd it is awesome. It also has TOS and Coax digital ins so you can use the DAC. That was a huge benefit for me. The build quality is amazing. For the money it is a steal in my book.
