I have an NAD 3155 and it has too much gain for me. I rarely use more than the first 30 degrees of pot and for most of my headphones, just the first 15 degrees. It's really hard to make fine adjustments.
It has a preout and main in and I assume I can make a cable with resistors to go between them to reduce the gain. What I don't know is do I just put resistors in series or do I need a network? Also is there a way to determine the resistor values other than trial and error?
In case it matters, the pre out impedance is 800 ohms and the main impedance is 22k ohms.
