I currently use an RMB-976 to drive the zone two output from my 1068. I've just added a fourth pair of zone two speakers and so I was looking at the 1048. The step-down in wattage should be ok and I wouldn't mind the trigger and matching looks.
However, what I'd be missing is the external amplifier pair volume controls that the 976 has. The 1048 seems to have these recessed with the apparent intent of being set once via screwdriver and then left alone. We don't have, nor want to install, volume switches for each remote zone - we like this all centralized.
Has anybody installed any 1048's (or RMB-1066's) with extensions or modifications to the volume pots to allow for frequent adjustment?
TIA,
