Low gain dac!
Yes it is true that the gain on my Primare Dac is higher than the industry standard of 2v.The dac does not have a volume knob or any way to adjust the output. I don’t know why Primare decided to do this, maybe most of their customers normally use ... 
Are spendor speakers competitive in sound quality to KEF, B&W, ProAC, Audio Physic
A lot of great speaker manufacturers in the Uk, Spendor are at the top for sure.

Low gain dac!
To clarify, my Supratek is a dual design, was buying a Cabernet with 6SN7 output, but then Mick has designed a dual with 6SN7 and 300B output, on the 300B output I can adjust gain, but unfortunately I like the 6SN7 better for most music, unfortuna...
