Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Volume Control

I agree with you that we don't have enough pieces to the puzzle (for me) to figure out what the problem is.

However, the issue I was attempting to address had really nothing to do with whether the line stage (or pre amp) was passive or active. Passive or active is incidental in this case. I was focusing only on the volume control mechanism. A line stage, whether passive or active, can have a volume control with limited range or flexibility and *could*, with highly sensitive speakers, contribute to a situation where there is too much volume too quickly.

Again I agree we need more information to figure out what's wrong here.
