DCS Bartok as Preamp


Is anyone using DCS Bartok as a preamp.

I would be using it with a Mcintosh MC462.  I have a C22 that could be used as the pre.

Does the Bartók feature a variable volume out for connecting to monoblocks that don't have a volume control?
@efoo Have you compared the T2 directly to the X1, and if so how would you describe the differences?

I have an X1 which is the best DAC I have owned, but curious how close the T2 comes.
Hard to compare because of the different set ups but I am happy with both.  Only downside is Lumin multi room has sync issues so you have to use roon.
