Unusual Pre-Amps

I'd give the Schiit a whirl, but wouldn't be shocked if it didn't sound quite as good as an active pre-amp. It offends my sensibilities that I have had better luck with active stuff. It could be that passives are just more fussy. Dunno.

My experience is with unbuffered stepped resistor volume controls (a DIY and a demo of another one whose name currently escapes me), and a brief demo of a Music First Baby Reference transformer based passive pre-amp (which sounded pretty good).
