This thread needs a bump...
Those that are running their X1 into their amps direct is who this question is directed toward.
I have a PASS 30.8 and am running PS Audio Direct Stream Sr. direct into it right now. I am having to use the low output setting because the noise (hiss) from the high setting is just too much. The voltage output in the high setting on the Direct Stream is 2.818 VRMS balanced, where the low setting is 0.282 VRMS balanced.
Don’t get me wrong, the low setting sounds fantastic, but I am worried about the 6 VRMS balanced on the X1 and the noise (hiss) issues it would have with no lower setting. I prefer the sound of the PASS without a preamp...
Any issues with the 6 VRMS on the X1 and hiss guys? Does LEEDH compensate for the noise if there are issues?
I am really wanting to get the X1, but this is holding me back.
Any input would be appreciated.
