That's what I been using mark levinson cd it might same branch the amp and the preamp but something is wrong have to turn the volume to 80 db very loud to appreciate the music with distortion I might return the preamp

Also I want to add this only have 6 hours of break in time but I heard some people said that power smp and preamp don't need break in time like speakers that need around 500 hours.Can that be the issue is to soon just 6 hours of burn in time

No…
it should not sound bad by default at the start.
Something is jacked up.
Pre or, cables,

Sounds like the problem is in the preamp, then, or maybe the connections.  I'd ask my dealer for help first before returning it.
