Can I use XLR to connect pre-amp to amp and RCA to connect pre-amp to sub? @djones51 thank you. I think you're right on my first pass of manual I read it as a no, but looks like it's a no only if RCA and XLR are connected to same amp.One other question I had is would it matter if the surrounds are connected via RCA to a ... | |
Can I use XLR to connect pre-amp to amp and RCA to connect pre-amp to sub? To clarify a bit more the Pre-amp I'm looking to buy is a Rotel RSP 1582. It has a full set of XLR outs (2 fronts, rears, center and two subs), as well as a full set of RCA outs. What I want to do is run all the non-sub speakers to two separate am... | |
Owner of "Anticables" and dealer for Spatial Audio is an amazing guy I’ve also had a positive experience Paul. I bought some speakers and the guy threw in a few cables. Even though used Paul was very helpful in identifying them along with some other suggestions. | |
For streaming Spotify and Tidal will a DAC improve quality over a Cromecast @loomisjohnson thanks that answers my question. I'm very happy with the sound. It makes sense that the optical would just port over the digital signal to the Rotel which would then translate it. | |
Budget hi-fi and vintage audio gear I’ve had amazing success on Craigslist. Often people don’t know/care what they are selling (dumping dead parent’s audio gear or an estate sale) or just want/need to sell gear asap on account of moving, WAF, etc. I bought a mint Rotel RSX-1550 A/V ... | |

Vandersteen 5 I think I've got everything up and running to a decent degree now. I've got the LFE set up for home theater and it sounds great. V5 and rear 2Cesigs set to larger no subs (currenlty trying to sell them). When I play music on two channel the V5 - 2... | |
Mccormack DNA-225 platinum @mitch2 Thanks - I’ve got everything up and running and the V5 - Mccormack combo sounds amazing. The picture is indeed my amp - good eye - per the guys at Mccormack the transformer is a Plitron and they also mentioned Jensen. The 225 is signed on ... | |

Mccormack DNA-225 platinum @Kmckenn - just replied to you on the other thread. But, wow we do have nearly twin systems. So far at least everything sounds great or at least better than my old setup (which I also loved) I have some cheap monster cable. The Mccormack came with... | |
Vandersteen 5 @kmckenn I think I've got the 5's dialed down, but I'm not sure it it's planing the LFE signals. I think I need to keep playing with the settings. I'll set the 2Ce's as large and see how they sound. I'm only planning on using surround for movies ... |
