Part of the nice sound may be due to the 100 KOhm impedance the source was working into.
Tight budgets, such as yours, need help from DIY. Try to run down a Creek OBH10. That will give you the wireless remote controlled, passive, box. The Creek OBH10 has only 1 set of I/P jacks. So, build an active buffer that includes source selection capability, but does not contain a volume control. Such a buffer is easy enough to execute around a HIGH gm twin triode. Construct the buffer with "captive" O/P interconnect cables. That saves money and eliminates a set of mechanical connections in the signal path.

Can I email you about that buffer thing?
After looking around at passive preamps that are, let's just say out of touch with reality! I decided I can build my own IR control with mulitple inputs.
I used to fix and repair old stereos as a hobby. So I'm fairly good with "tools"
Thanks

Sure, use AA EMail. Make certain that the subject stands out, as the message will arrive in a junk folder.
