SPL / Volume 8

This 8-channel volume controller from SPL uses a high-quality power supply and features a large knob for excellent operability.

■Volume Controller, 8-Channel, High-End
~From the Manufacturer's Website~

Volume8 is an 8-channel volume controller. Many DA converters and sound cards require signal level changes at the converter output, resulting in lower bit rates in the monitoring signal and a loss of sound quality. Therefore, by using an active circuit design, we can avoid the loss of linearity caused by impedance changes that occur in passive circuits.
