Post Subject: Bidat with volume pot?Posted by Antonio J. on: 3/4/2005
I wonder if you're doing your listening with the Bidat using its volume pot or you're using only vinyl with your phono correctors or maybe the ET-T-834 EAR using its volume pot. Maybe the Melquiades has its own attenuators. I'll be glad to know how you handle the volume control and if perhaps the kind of design you've applied to the Melquiades might be applied to a preamp. That would be a simpler way to get that X-factor without handling with output transformers.
I can't help two half brains, one asks for music and just focus on performance, meaning, load, intentions... but the other half "wants to know" how it works, how "the sound" influences the capability of a system to leave "music alone". So if you whenever know why Melquiades sound is so different and unique, so right, then I'll be thankful knowing it.
