The Counterpoint has no volume control, but has a gain of 30db which is about 4 db higher than average. The Superphon line stage gain is 20db which is also higher than average. You are pairing a high gain amp with a high gain pre and the result is you have very little flexibility with the volume control.
Superphon Revelation II Preamp with Phono Stage
Can anyone make a suggestion to finding a perfect mate for the Superphon Revelation II Preamp with Phono Stage?
I am speaking of a power amp that would go well with this pre amp.
I hooked it up to a Counterpoint SA 100 power amp and it’s just too much power amp for this pre amp.
The Lazarus Cascade Basic works like a charm when combined with the Counterpoint SA 100 power amp. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
The Lazarus works so well because of the right and left attenuators for HiFi application.
This Superphon is ideally suited for stereophonic reproduction.
