last night I plugged my CDP directly into the amp to get an idea how max volume would be. It was plenty loud. I just listened to the beginning of some familiar pieces which I knew started out fairly quitely. Very nice sound. I rigged up a breadbx and resisters I purchased from RS this morning and tried it out - not bad but certainly not the best connections. Regarding impedance matching, I can force the input impedance to match the output of the CDP at a particular volume setting but then the output varies. Is there a way to optimize this to a certain volume level? I have in place now a 10K in series and 4.7K shunt which is a quite low volume setting. I will be playing with the shunt K to find the right combination.Scott W
