Well initially, the source (one of the above) directly into a power amp, then to speakers – I like simple :) - in a nice stereo/home office room, was planned, once we have moved. However, things change :-) the a&v gear will all have to stay in the same room/lounge now, also, I learnt a bit about the SB digital volume control & SNR etc. Hence, this thread, to get an idea as to what sort of £ ratio a pre amp should involve, so as not to degrade the HQ source. By the sounds of Cliveb and Patrick's experience, as well as Robin’s cd direct option [thanks for the posts :)], I should revert back to my original thoughts on set up, and save spending out :) on a pre. I’m getting a strong vibe from the rest of you that speakers may just, play an important role :) pre money -> speakers then. Adam, I was thinking of: Source, as above, feeding, either a couple of Exons, a KST-150, or maybe a Bryston, to my existing speakers(for the time being) or possibly some Totem's down the line. But, in avoiding a pre, I'm in need of an idea or two, to get the other sources into the power amp. Not so bad, if I like the TP or a dac, but if I prefer Patricks SB+ :o So then Patrick, if I end up preferring the sound from your SB+ are there any options to get, either an additional analogue or digital signal, through your unit? Thank you everyone for your helpful posts so far :) Cheers -- Deaf Cat ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Deaf Cat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=515 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34849
