Advice please.
After removing vinyl playback from my system (a painful process), I now find myself with:
Akurate DS/1
Majik Kontrol preamp.
Akurate 2200
Linn Silvers
I have read in other threads that received wisdom is that it is better to retain a preamplifier if you have the choice. I also sort of understand that this is because it is better to cut down the signal from the line-level of 80 by analogue means rather than digitally.
But what in my case where supposedly the preamp is of lesser quality than the other components?
Yes, certainly I will try it for myself, when I become less enchanted and astounded with the quality of my Akurate DS as compared to my Majik DS. I currently have retained the Majik Kontrol.
Would blanced silvers give a worthwhile improvement? I do not have any of these to try.
Ideas? Thanks
