| Any comments on DAC going direct to power amplifier or to pre-ampliifer? I own the PS Audio Perfectwave MKII DAC and it definitely sounds better going direct to the power amplifier instead of a going through a preamp. | |

I do agree with Cerrot regarding using a pci usb soundcard. Paul Pang makes a nice one for $129, which is what I use. It is powered by an Acopian AC/... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream There are non-PSA units with I2S outputs that can connect to the Directstream. W4S server is one example. | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream Descriptions of sounds are mostly meaningless. You have to actually hear them to understand. | |
| Computer output to DAC, which route? you don't NEED an Offramp if you go USB. | |
| Best USB Asynchronous DAC 24/192 under $600? Help In the end Totally relying on reviews and opinion is mostly fruitless. So, audition the Concero and Schiit, and send one of them back. |
