Re: NVA P50 II. , very low volume
What is the problem with just switching from one input (aux) to the other (phono) ?

Because I don't want the NVA's volume control to operate the Merdian CD player. I wanted to bypass the NVA volume control. The Merdian sounds fantastic direct into the power amp with nothing in-between.

Re: NVA P50 II. , very low volume
Putting the Meridian in the Direct input of the pre-amp does send it through the SA volume unit - so you are running through that anyway.

Re: NVA P50 II. , very low volume
The Direct input is meant to be used when only a single source is needed, which then has volume control via the pre-amp.
More than a single source - then you have to use the switchable inputs and not the Direct.

Re: NVA P50 II. , very low volume
Try running both via switchable inputs. See how it sounds.
When using the DAC then set the volume of the preamp to about 75% and then run volume control via the DAC.
Turn volume down again before going over to phono.

Re: NVA P50 II. , very low volume
To be honest, I could do that by using the AMR that I have.
In fact, and I haven't tried this, if I turn the AMR up to 0bD, it switches out the volume control anyway.
It's only looking g at the NVA problem that reminded me that this was possible.
