It's too bad that the line-level adapters you got did not work for your setup. What did they (not) do?
OTOH, I have built them from pairs of resistors and they work just fine.

How to control volume on an integrated and amp
Shortly I will be getting my 47 Labs Shigaraki integrated which will run a pair of horn loaded Zhorn speakers. Nevertheless, because of my experience with running almost full range speakers and the practical lack of tactile bass of SET+horn fullrange speakers, I am thinking about running the set up along with a DNA 225, controlled by a Paradigm X-30 crossover to a pair of freestanding passive subwoofers.
The problem resides in the fact that when I run the set up with a preamp, one can control the amp that run the top end, while another variable output might go to subwoofer amp. Thus, when the volume goes up and down on a preamp, it will increase the volume of the high amp and sub amp. This is out of question with the Shigaraki, which has only two outputs, a line output, fixed and the output to the speaker posts.
How will you run a set up that can control the volume across all frequencies, besides resorting to buying a powered subwoofer?
