QUOTE(vivakarna @ May 30 2012, 04:55 PM) sound quality and reliability. I want to buy schiit bifrost but after some research, there is an issue with the clicking sound coming from the device and the issue of the optical input..so it kinda turned off..one more thing, if something happen to bifrost, i need to send back to US and it'll cost me a lot. Perhaps you can try Jaben Malaysia.  They do carry Schiit product but on back to back basis i guess. Contact them for more information. |

Have a question here...
In normal circumstances, Source->DAC->Pre amp->Power Amp->speaker or Source->DAC->Integrated Amp->speaker Can it be like Source->DAC->Power Amp-> speaker? It's w/o pre amp What's the function as a pre amp? Thanks |

QUOTE(hongrui @ Jun 29 2012, 10:34 PM) integrated amp actually consist of both the pre-amp and power amp components, hence the name integrated. thanks for the explaination. to put it simply, the function of a pre-amp is for volume control. power amp you can think of it as a fixed gain, the pre-amp sends out a variable strength signal based on your volume control and the power amp just amplifies it by a fixed certain amount. Source->DAC->Power Amp-> speaker = no volume control. What if the dac has a volumn control? or control the volumn through source? eg: laptop/computer QUOTE(hongrui @ Jun 29 2012, 11:18 PM) If the dac has volume control, then it has the pre amp function. So you're still going the dac-pre amp-power amp route. i wanna build a audio gd reference series->balance amp...found a pretty good deal at balance power amp....wonder can skip.the preamp with that....the audio gd ref series need balance need fullfill it potentialVolume control on the source shouldn't work because usually dacs have a fixed line output. If your dac has a variable output I suppose it could be done, controlling the volume from your source. |

After successfully acquired Logitech Squeeze Box Touch & Anedio D2, should I add another USB to S/PDIF transport in between to maximize the sound?
Currently under my consideration: Audiophileo 1/2 or Art Legato Or any other suggestion? Thanks in advance |
