| Q on connecting Benchmark DAC3HGC to AHB2 Got it sorted guys, thank you - that slot on the bottom had me lost and with the interconnects inserted I couldn’t see that slot at all. Anyway, I’m having fun today and trying not to disturb the neighbors, big thanks again! | |
| Benchmark AHB2 amp - what speaker connectors are used…. I got it imhohifiman - I removed the interconnect to get in there and I’m up and running! You saved me a pair of speaker cables - I owe you a beer! | |

| Cheapest but good cables…. System is Benchmark AHB2 with Benchmark DAC3 preamp. I have Totem 1 bookshelf speakers but may use Paradigm S2V2 after comparing. Dont have the luxury of testing out different cables - I moved to Brazil and am bringing components here bit by bit.... | |
