oppo's volume control


Any Oppo owners out there who have tried routing them directly to a power amp using their volume controls instead of a separate preamp or integrated? Would like to know how that has worked for those who have tried it.

The analog stereo output of my 105 goes to a Parasound JC-2 preamp, surrounds go directly to Proceed HPA amps, SW to a Velodyne SMS-1 (LF acoustic room correction). The level of the JC-2 is set to match the other channels, and the volume is controlled by the 105. The result is excellent. When the Sony XA5400ES or JC-3 phono stage is selected at the preamp, the volume is controlled by the JC-2.
