hi
currently i am using my AV receiver to convert the SPDIF digital signal from my computer and then i use the AVR's preamp outs to feed the analogue signal into my headphone amp.
I am strongly considering upgrading to an external DAC (beresford tc-7520 of dacmagic im thinking) to feed the headphone amp. Will i still need to preamp the signal from the DAC before passing it into the headamp? because currently if i turn my AVR preamp down past around -38 the headphones are too quiet
thanks
