IIRC, they have separate Vol controls for each channel which utterly
confounds the Yanks, I gather. (No surprise there...!!) Gives a you a
nice bit of 'balnce control' to square a (sonically) wonky room. Also
there are 'silent settings' on the IS, I believe so you dont blow
your brains out switching between sources?? All clever stuff.

Them volume controls are hard to use, drives me mad some times

Some people sell up after a bit, as they never get use to them



Doesn't bother me - I even use two seperate amps for bi-amping sometimes.
You can either effect a Balance Control or Tone Controls according to the
way you wire them.



If I am good next year, as I can not get new car, still banned due to a
couple of mini strokes will be able to splash out a bit.

Nice CD player Naim Wadia or Krell could be on the way to my collection or

this pre amp no idea what to use it with just like it :-)
