Hi all, I would try 2 things; First, bypass the preamp using a passive volume control. If you like the change then look for a new preamp. If it sounds worse ,then start with replacing the interconnect between your transport and DAC. Try to barrow the passive volume control or even build a simple one . This should answer your question. In my setup the cable between my preamp and amp changes the sound like a tone control but the digital cable is my best guess as to where your problem is. I can not give you much advice on which digital cable will work best so try at least a few. Hope this helps.
The weakest link?
Hello all
I just wanted some advice on my system. I have not been in this for long but I have the bug. What have now is a MSB Gold dac and a Proceed CDD transport adcom gfp-750 and a pass labs x-150 amp. with matrix interconnects. and a power company 400 with BMI eels cords. It sounds real good but something is missing I don't like the tube sound I was thinking of replacing my preamp with another one maybe a Krell KSL. What do all of you think? is this my weakest link in my set up. any advice would be great Thanks
