Hi all,
I have acquired a Grant Fidelity TubeDac11 to to connect to my VA 1.2. The VA1.2 is fed by lead acid battery and sounds great on its own. I wanted the GF to increase the number of sources and also for a USB and DAC possibility. For now, I am still using the volume control on the VA1.2 to control the volume. The volume control on the GFTubeDac11 is permanently set to 3 o'clock. I also have a subwoofer connected to the sub-out RCA of the VA1.2.
Is this an ideal connection? There is a possibility of disengaging the volume pot of the VA1.2 and use it as a pre-power OR using turn up the vol pot of the VA1.2 and use the volume control of the GF to control the volume. For these 2 cases, can I still connect the subwoofer direct to the VA or should it be connected to the GF (essentially used as a pre-amp in this case).
Any opinion is welcome and appreciated.
