I really like my PS Audio GCD and I’m sticking with it. It’ll be my pre/dac/headphone amp for a long time.
Is pre-amp getting killed?
Hi,
I'm in the market for the Pre-amp and DAC. I had the PS audio Stellar Gain Cell DAC/Pre-amp combo and I sold that to go separates. I thought of buying PS audio Direct Stream DAC and Audio Research REF 6 Pre-amp. I started doing research and spoke to few dealers. Below are the recommendations I got,
1. Bel Canto EX DAC
2. Simaudio 390 Network Player/DAC
3 dealers I spoke recommended to go with Pre-AMP/DAC/Network player combo instead of separate Pre-amp and DAC. Is pre-amp's are getting killed by the combo?
Any thoughts?
