I beg to differ. There can be no audio quality improvement in adding anything to the audio chain. And there have been many threads on direct connection of a SqueezeBox to an amp. With proper gain matching, there is no safety issue. You may need attenuators, Sean Adams pointed out some high quality and reasonably priced models. Audiophile passive preamps tend to be very pricey for what the do, which is nearly nothing by switching. To be direct. You do not _need_ a preamp when using a SqueezeBox or Transporter. -- Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
