now that I'm running my Sony Xa7es direct. Run direct, my system is more extended to the extremes, more dynamic, and the tranparency is unparalleled in my experience with CD. I'd love to know why, but ain't complaining. I power my Kharma 1.0CE's with the Cary 300SE Sig.
Why go with active preamp?
I've got 1) source, 15" I/C's, don't need a remote, and my CDP has a buffered output stage. So I've begun to wonder, why do I need an active preamp? Can the sound be tweaked enough with the power amp and source?
Any comments on why you chose an active over passive preamp?
Thanks
