| LaScala dac with telefunken tubes @whipsaw- I agree with that statement- no doubt that Aqua would have made that change if they didn’t feel it to be a vertical move. I do find the subject of “tube rolling” fascinating though and personally wouldn’t be opposed to experiencing the ... | |

| How to connect a Aqua LaScala Optologic DAC to 2 amps @atorres53 - I've never tried this with my La Scala but as it has an output selection switch to determine where the signal is going it might work. I haven't seen anything in the documentation that says specifically NOT to have multiple outputs wi... |
