Well, I've started to notice that most music seems to be a tad louder in my right ear than my left and I'm having to adjust the balance on my NAD and old Kenwood gear just slightly to the left to compensate.When I finally get around to building an amp (yeah, I know I keep talking about it, but stuff like going to Stugis keeps coming up --glad my old man is footin the bill $$ for that trip otherwise it wouldn't happen!), would it be better to put in a balance pot, or to go with dual volume controls? Seems like a balance pot would just add one more link in the signal chain that didn't need to be there.
