DAC v1 on NAC 202

Posted by: angelodipa on 28 May 2018

Hello to all

I just bought a DAC V1 where I connected a Mac Mini with Audirvana via asynchronous USB.

I have to connect the DAC to my preamp. NAC 202.

Which input do you suggest me to use? CD? Tuner? Aux1? Aux2?

is indifferent? are they all the same?

Thanks so much

I assume you are aware that the Dac V1 comes with a Pre-amp and you can run it straight into a poweramp? I believe it is the 4 pin to 4 pin din snaic.

Hello

yes ... I know that the DAC V1 also works as preamp, but having to manage other analog inputs (for example the front output of the AV2) I have to connect it to the NAC 202 and I can not connect it directly to the NAP 200.

Obviously to do this I have already set the preamp. volume to "fixed" on the DAC

Then I have no further comment. In the past there were differences on which input was best, but I can't comment on this regarding the 202.

Good to read you have an AV2 too. Its a nice thing.

Some would say tuner input on older preamps, guess they are all equal now
