Balanced Variable Attenuators

I am looking for variable, balanced attenuators (L & R) to go between my SACD Player and amps (don't want a preamp), I was looking at Endler Audio but reviews say the lessen soundstage depth. I would love a pair of Ultimate Attenuators but I understand they are no longer in production. I don't want a passive amp as I don't want another set of interconnects. I'd like something of very high end quality and not really a DIYer for something like this. I would appreciate any thoughts. Thanks,

A couple things, I have had both the Endler and EVS attenuators and preferred the EVS. I still keep a set around just in case. Also, if you can't get Ric to make you the balanced attenuators you might want to consider the balanced Luminous Audio Axiom. Very reasonably priced and gets good reviews.

I noticed you have a solid state amp, what is the input impedance?

Thansk. I'm not sure what the input impedance is. I will reach out to Ric.

Does anyone have Ric's email? The contact area on his site is not working. Thanks!
