I'm using a nap 180 (replaced a sony integrated amplifier 440e) into linn isobarik speakers with amazon music bluetooth 44.1/96 to topping dx3 pro plus as a source.
I dont have a preamplifier yet but the Dx3 has a volume control so I bought a cheap din - rca connector, plugged it in, and the whole thing now sounds really good to me - do I need a nac preamplifier - will it bring further improvements or less is more in this case?
I have a hicap in anticipation of buying a nac102/62/72 but i'm now wondering if this is necessary. I guess the obvious answer is buy one and see. Anyone tried similar or have a view?
