It all depends on what caliber DAC your universal player has. You are essentially listening to the DACs and the analog output stage. If you already own a universal player with high grade analog outs, get an analog MCH preamp. I used a McCormack MAP1 in my secondary system and it is a pretty nice amp. If you don't have a good analog MCH player yet, getting a good SSP and using your player as an HDMI transports is more flexible and cost effective.
HT Processor Failing, any ideas on Multi Channel P
Hello,
I am currently running a Myryad HT processor. Thing is I am not using it for hardly any processing! I want a multi channel preamp to pass through a 5.1 signal from a Blu Ray and I will have a computer/dac setup for music.
My thought was to get a multi channel preamp without any processing for this purpose. Any suggestions?
Should I get something like the McCormack MAP-1
Or perhaps by a used high quality processor and use a analog bypass for HT and the Dac section for the computer? I have noticed some great processors (such as the Sim-audio attraction) for sale cheap!
Thanks
