hi, I have the bel canto cd2, dac three going into rogue audio m150 tube monos, it sounds great, but I have heard a audio research pre amp ,and the pre amp gave the sound more body, and was less flat, and more dynamic. so listen for yourself, good luck. chrissain
Bel Canto DAC3 without preamp
I have been driving a plinius sa100mkiii with a bel canto dac3 running in the preamp mode. Is there sonic repercussions when doing this? My initial thought was if I could take out a preamp, its just another piece in the chain that is takin out and not losing the signal. Thanks
