Can someone tell me if Creek evolution 5350 has a dedicated DAC input or it does not metter which input to use?
El Hefe said:Any of the inputs can be used except for phono in if there is one.

Unfortunately Creek amps don't have built-in phono stages.

Mine does;
In a further development of the Evolution 5350 integrated amplifier's pre-amplifier section, 5 inputs are selectable by high current gold plated relays and switchable access to the power amp allows the Evolution 5350 to be driven directly by the front channels of a 5.1 AV receiver. The standard Creek plug-in Phono pre-amp is also featured. A high-grade PGA2320 digitally controlled analogue volume control circuit together with OPA604 Op-Amps are used to provide a pre-amp with higher overload margin and lower distortion.
I run my dac into the tuner input.

Creek have a phono input but it can't be used, according to a Creek dealer, without a phono card, which costs about £150 extra.
