| Does anyone leave their amp and preamp on all the time? My SS integrated amp is always on standby, but it still takes 20-25 minutes to sound it's best. | |
| SW1X Audio Design DAC II Absolute Top Tier Ref NOS DAC Wig,Congrats on your new DAC! Which one of your power cords are you using with it? | |
| FM Antennas For Old School Tuner? The best indoor antenna I ever used was a car antenna. It worked fine but looked awful, of course. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD MattI hate to go off topic so to speak, but did you ever have a chance to listen to the Mojo DAC? Or did I miss your impressions? Thanks! | |
| The ups and downs of tube vs. SS... I'm wondering this too. I've had tube preamplifiers but never just a buffer. Does having no gain give the sound of tubes? | |

| Active and passive preamp in one chain ? @inna I took a quick look at The Rogue preamps' output impedance and they all seem low enough that impedance mismatches shouldn't be a problem. It looks like your idea should work, it just seems so unusual. I'm not a tech guy either, and I'm not ... | |
| Active and passive preamp in one chain ? The only input impedance I can find for your amp is 10K ohms. That's pretty low and it will cut down on your choices for a preamp. Also, if the amp section is designed for a passive pre, the voltage output of an active pre could very well overload... | |
