    Preamp for turntable vs phone input on integrated amp

    If your fluance has a 2M blue, then you'll be very pleased with your new deck. I had one for a while and it sounded great into my arcam's built in phono stage. I don't know how my arcam compared to your amp but when I got the schiit mani phono stage, Wow, huge improvement. That was a little over...

    Can I use the USB 5v power supply at the back of my Arcam A39 to power my new Chord Qutest?

    Thank you both for the input. I won't try it following your advice. Very happy so far with the chord dac. I won't bother doing anything with the power cable yet. Thanks for again

    Can I use the USB 5v power supply at the back of my Arcam A39 to power my new Chord Qutest?

    I've read its worth experimenting with the supply to my new Qutest but unsure whether or not its safe to try the supply from the back of the Arcam. I believe this was designed for the Arcam separate DACs. Does it have any advantages aside from one less plug in the wall? Thanks
