is there a product out there that will suit me? at the moment i have a creek oh8se phono which gets fed into a cyrus aca7.5 pre amp. apart from sending the signal to the power amps the pre has no other duties. however, without the pre i wouldnt be able to control the volume from my listening position. i just think its a bit of a waste, and it can't be doing the signal any favours because by the time it hits the speakers it has passed thru 4 different cables. does any one know of a decent phono stage or pre that i could get to solve this 'problem'? my system has no other sources ta for the info in advance
