I was thinking the theta was a dac only. But I think you should try the TP dac and run its analog using the theta as a line level preamp. You can also run the TP straight to the amp, but use the attenuation inside the TP that works through the RCA outs. There is a thread on this with much more detail. You might like the TP dac more than the theta but you will only know if you try it. The reason I recommend at least a week is that the TP,to my ears, improves a lot with time. It's great out of the box, but even better after a few weeks IMHO -- tomjtx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tomjtx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7449 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29306 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
