I just hooked up the DAC, its bananas! I am hearing new lows, high and the depth of the music almost makes you sick. I was dumb because I changed the preamp at the same time. The best part, I am only using a 60 watt Sonance amp to power this set up. The run down:
Melos MA-333 preamp
Melos CD Drive
Melos MAX DAC
Melos MAX tube output for the dac
Sonance 360
Snell type b
Thank you for looking.
