Frank,
Thanks for taking your time to go through this.
"What are you connecting the DAC to currently? Is it connected to an integrated amp (is there a volume control on your amplier) then to the speakers? What's the reason you are adding a preamp?"
Currently the dac is connected to a Marantz sr6006 ht pre/pro with a Bryston 3bst amp handling the amplifier duties for the front Gallo Ref 3.1 Speakers..
I saw major sq differences when I added both the dac and the amplifier to my system. Everything I read indicates that a significant improvement can be had with a seperate preamp vs the ht processor.
Hard to verbalize what I want. Even though my system sounds very good to me I know it can be better. Would like tighter placement of instruments, front to back imaging, tighter bass, a more you are there feeling.
Thanks
Steve
