Hello, I am curious as to how much of the time you guys have your preamp on? Mine is on 100% of the time. I actually never had to turn it off. I couldn't dream of ever using the attenuator… My K2 seems to hear pretty well, but not without the preamp. Has anyone heard of changing R76 from 10 Ohms to 6.8 Ohms? Thanks. Gil.
