OK, how about the GenVIII vs. the combination of a tube preamp such as a chenin with any dac anyone would recommend, where the used price of the GenVIII is about the used price of the preamp and dac combo?
Theta GenVIII vs. Theta Va and a tube preamp?
Anyone directly compared? I'm assuming the dac in the VIII is a significant improvement over the Va, but how good is the preamp section? If I jumped for a Supratek or something of that nature, which would give me more inputs, a HT bypass, etc., how would it compare sonically? Rest of system is Theta front end, Theta amp, Snell speakers. Thanks. -Dave
