Just for an example I use the Reveille passive with 10k volume controls. My front end is the Reveille phono or a Meridian CD player. I use a VTL Tiny Triode 25 amp with an imput impedance of 100k. I am very pleased with the current setup. If you are after transparency use a passive with proper sources and you haven't added much to the signal. I think the attenuator design and quality is critical to passive performance so get the best you can.
