Are Pre-Amps necessary?

With all the advances in digital sources, do we still need a $5,000 pre-amp?

All we need is a switching device and maybe a Phono preamp/RIAA curve device.

Tone controls are another thing of the past. Room correction has taken over if that is something you want to use.

Thoughts?

Good question OP. I have been wondering this myself for the longest time. Soon now thanks to you we will know. Already learned, 1v to clipping. Who knew!?!? This is off to such a great start, one can only imagine the many fascinating new things to come!
