I tried this today. At first the change wasn't quite so obvious. But after comparing about 15 different songs that I know well. It became clear that removing the Yamaha pre amp, drastically improved the sound quality and pleasure. With the pre amp the music sounded only about 1 foot thick and uninvolving. With the squeezebox going directly to the amp, the sound became more 3 dimensional, more like a 3D movie, where the sound came out and touched me. I guess this would be what is referred to as soundstage? Either way the end result is the music is much more fun to listen to and much more involving. The bass also seemed to have a little more authority and clarity. The highs were not as schrill. Overall a much more enjoyable listening experience. Now what to do for the amp.... and or DAC.... or Transporter.... -- John_Dumke ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John_Dumke's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9709 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66754 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
