Fixed on the Node2i.
BlueSound Node 2i > RME ADI2 DAC > NAD 316 BEE v2 > Dali Rubicon 5 (volume too high)
Hey guys,
This might be a silly question but I'd really appreciate if you can help me understand this issue or the lack thereof.
Listed above is my system/chain. I have 3 units with pre-amp (Node, RME DAC and NAD amp). So what should the volume on my Node and RME Dac if I want the NAD to be the main control?
Currently, I have it at Full Volume (0 db) on the Node and RME. However, I can't seem to go past 9 o clock position on my NAD or it simply gets too loud.
Is this normal? If so, I don't think I'll ever need a more powerful amplifier? I am able to drive a pair of Dali Rubicon 5s (considered power hungry) with this entry level NAD. I was considering upgrading the amp but wonder if it would make any difference at all?
