With your hi-fi I can believe that. Buy a real preamp.

I am considering it. My Yamaha has an intermittent output and I
don't have the time to look into it.


On paper the Parasound PPH-110 looks good. Thing is, they don't
specify its gain in a meaningful way. Price seems reasonable enough.
I'm sure it would drive a line-level input on Scott's Yamaha.

Except the Yamaha has an intermittent main output and is coming out.
I want a phono preamp that can drive my passive attenuator into a
Krell KSA-150 power amp. Im fine with my CD into the passive and don't
need to add a preamp in that path.

If not that, then a pre-amp with phono and I'll add a source switch on
the Krell though this is not my preferred option.

Except in your rush to judgement Scotty, you missed the part where I wrote
this:

http://www.parasound.com/pdfs/PPH-100Brochure.pdf says that it has enough
gain to drive "line-drive preamps" which is a hopeful sign.
