Pulled the trigger on a Moon 861! Hope it pairs well on my Focals

Well, I pulled the trigger and ordered a Moon 861 amp! I am very excited! It will be coming next week. I have a pair of focal Sopra n1 speakers that I'll be using on it. I've never heard them paired before. I heard a moon audio 761 on dynaudio towers and so that's what turned me on to The Moon North collection.

 

I'm feeling a little bit nervous. Hopefully it pairs really good with good synergy with the focals. Has anyone ever heard the moon north gear on Focals before?

If you are using Bluetooth then the volume on your phone needs to be raised. 
it’s fine for breaking in the amp but why not use the right setup?

Ya, I have the volume up 90% on my phone. This setup is only for breaking in the amp. I don't want to put 100 hours on the Macintosh amp if I'm not really listening. I'm going to try playing the amp on low volume while I sleep at night to try to get 8 hours a night on it.

Just keep it on 24/7 and play music thru it as much as you can. It’s going to be fine when your preamp is back in. 
what do you normally use as a source to feed the dac?
