wyred4sound dac hookup to receiver


Anybody tell me how ? Right now i have the analog outputs of the dac to the cd input of my receiver . I do not feel this is correct . I am getting sound this way but, i can control the volume from both the receiver and dac . I would like to use my denon 5700 for amplification only .

Tried plato's suggestion . Still can contol volume ,tone .ect.. . I have the manual and it does not show or describe a preamp hookup. It does show how to add extra amps. Anyone else ever hookup a preamp to their receiver ?
I might be wrong, but by looking at the AVR5700 manual online I saw only pre-out, no power-in connectors (as expected, I might add). Usually receivers allow you to use them as pre-processors, but not as power amps.
Thus it looks that you won't be able to bypass the preamp section of your receiver.
I am not knowledgeable about your particular receiver. If it has a direct mode, then you should be able to use Plato's method. Most AVRs do have the direct mode in the set up option.
