There is no such thing as a "passive" in an electronic system.

Put all components (Source, preamp, amp) in the same pretty box and you have eliminated the visual concept of a separate "passive" component.

As an audio system, you are left with either good engineering or poor engineering.

A resistive/autoformer/transformer volume control individually is a "passive" attenuation element that is employed in every single audio system. Some people do not know how to create a good system out of various components That is why the hobby has good sounds and poor ones.
