Can’t believe you never added “no chance” on the end of that statement

What is the significance of the ALPS potentiometer?
Is it better than the old vol. control ?
Is it better than the vol control in my Elex-R?
It could be a turbo signal booster.The clue is in the name.
This is what Naim did when they replaced the 112x pre with the 122x I think it was. By common consent the motorized pot of the latter sounded better than the resistor ladder of the former.I had wondered about this. It seems like a backward step (sonically, certainly in low level channel balance) to replace a microcontroller based resister ladder (which I assume is what the previous volume was) with a motorized ALPS pot ?
Possible supply chain problems ? However I'm a software engineer, so what would I know ?
I was thinking of replacing my big chunky Yamaha A-S801 with something that fits better in my equipment rack.
And I fancy a change too as well as a spare amp to sit around spare or sell.
Speakers are Proac D2 which I think should suit.
Any further experiences with the Elicit 5 or Elex R that users can share?
Very nice review.John Darko loved it.
Rega just get it so right consistently and always superb VFM on their product.

the Elicit was more refined but the Elex R more engaging and fun to listen too.
Aethos sounds like Elex-R on steroids to me. And the Elex-R sounded like a beefed up Brio. Similar sounding with obvious upgrades. The Elicit to me had a sound I didn’t care for. Which is weird as apparently the Aethos has more in common with the Elicit.My experience as well
Both fine amps, haven't heard the latest editions as I went with Aethos (different ballgame)
