Is it possible? A good solution?


Is it a good idea to have the following setup?

Turntable -> Phono -> A/D converter -> DAC with preamp -> power amp

In that case, I can invest in a high quality DAC with preamp function (like Weiss Dac202) and got lots of options in digital area.

The only thing I am worry about is the Analog side...will that DAC somehow change the sound character from the turntable/cartridge?

Or it is simply a stupid idea at all???

I say keep the analog analog, and the digital digital. The more pieces you add, the more the signal gets changed. Rarely does changing the original signal work out for the better. There's always exceptions though.

People debate vinyl vs digital ad nausium. I say why choose when you can have both.
