stephenhunter 7 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Hi I am thinking about investing in a reasonably high end streamer /dac to replace a Naim 172xs streamer pre amp. Does anyone have experience in using a streamer/ dac with volume control as a preamp? Are there inherent problems with this approach. In particular has anyone used an Auralic Vega G2.1 straight into a power amp, in my case a Naim 250 DR Thanks for any advice Link to post Share on other sites
mjs 264 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I am using my Auralic Vega G2.1 as a preamp directly into my ME850 power amp. I still use vinyl with output from my ME25 Pre into the analog input of the Vega. The analog volume control on the Vega seems excellent and I’ve got no complaints. Link to post Share on other sites

mjs 264 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 The Vega G2.1 is an excellent streaming DAC, I thoroughly recommend it. Link to post Share on other sites
