Anthony, if you are trying to implement with your version of Milq the same multi-amping with line level filters at input then make sure that you will have output stage of your frond end the will be able to drive all of it. Most of the preamps will not have current to do so and your filters will be not operating properly due to too high front-end output impedance. So, think forward…


Hi Romy,

My dac can push a LOT of current and at this stage I have only two sources...FM and PC...and am currently trialing pre-amps.  I have a Placette Active Linestage on the way to me but first I had it sent to my dac maker and he assures me that although it measures very well it is not transparent to my dac...dynamics are robbed and the highs are not right.  We will see when it gets here to me and I listen to it and I may or may not stick with it.  I also have a diy SS pre that is capable of pushing plenty of current but I just have to find some time to finish its construction.

I am reasonably sure that the Placette will be transparent to my TUX1 and if I end up using a pre I will bypass the VC on the tuner in an effort to improve sound.

Regards,

Anthony
