I have been using the RME for a while now, fantastic DAC. I am temporarily switching to using its RCA out, until a new XLR preamp arrives. I have found I like the Axiom II Walker Mod pre from my 2nd system a lot better than the PS Audio I was using, but it is RCA. I have an XLR version on order. Should I mess with the output settings? I had been using +1 DBu w/XLR out on someones recommendation.
RME ADI-2 DAC FS is it "All That", especially for under $2,000?
I am upgrading my main system with a Mark Levinson No 532H and pair of Tekton MOABs, arriving in the next few weeks. I decided my Music Hall 25.3 DAC should probably be upgraded as well, I have a PS Audio preamp I was planning on still using.
I am getting a lot of recommendations for the RME ADI-2 DAC FS, and some are saying replace my PS Audio preamp with it also. Pretty much every review or even mention of it I can find, comes with descriptions like "End Game product regardless of price" and "State of the art".
Thoughts?
Thanks.
