PS - I am kind of a newbie in the hi-fi world. Thank you in advance for your valuable and salutary help. How to use the single DAC as a source for both the integrated stereo amplifier and the headphone amplifier, while not sacrificing any sound quality. At that point, the same question will be remaining. I have a Cambridge Audio Azur 350A integrated amplifier in mind as the central piece of the setup. This question is very important to me because I plan on upgrading the living room stereo system (obvisouly) in the near future. I do not want to have to make trade-offs with regards to the sound quality. I really want to hold on the full quality of the signal. Is it by splitting the signal with above mentioned solid Y splitters ? Or is it by connecting the DAC to the Tivoli AUX input, and then by connecting the ASGARD to the REC output of the Tivoli ? In the latter case, would the analog signal be affected by the Tivoli circuitry ? I can't seem to determine whether the Tivoli can act as a pass-thru. I want to be able to use the Bifrost DAC as a source for both my private headphone listening sessions and for outputting through the Tivoli.īasically I would want directions as to how to optimally set that up.

I already have a Tivoli Model Two radio station in the house (ask the wife. I have a Schiit Bifrost on the way, along with a Schiit Asgard to amp my HP. Which ones would you recommend? I'd rather not invest in a switchbox as it's only for two amps, but would that be a better idea instead? Then there are audioquest ones that look like this, obviously much more expensive:

Or the ones that are on more of an Y angle: I see that the standard plain jane RCA splitters they sell on ebay look like this: I'm never going to use the two amps at the same time so no need to worry about the signal splitting or whatever. as using a standard splitter would apply additional weight to the jacks (I figure this wouldn't be a problem anyway as the RCA outputs are solidly built, but still). What I'd like is for the splitter to have as little impact to the sound quality as possible, and for it to put as least stress to the RCA jacks of the DA100 as possible. so the obvious solution I figure is to invest in a RCA splitter, or a switchbox of some sort. and reaching back to switch the RCA cable every time I want to try the other amp is bothersome and likely bad for the cable and the jacks in the long run. I really like the DA100 with the WA6SE as well so I'm not going to separate those two anytime soon. The DA100 just like most other DACs only have one pair of RCA outputs. This bring to me to the point of this topic though. The double-braided nylon exterior not only adds to its ruggedness but also keeps it tangle-free.ġ x PEACHZ 3.I recently added a HP100 to my current WA6SE+DA100 mix and I find it to be a very nice solid state compliment to the WA6SE, and it's synergy with the DA100 is fantastic (not surprisingly, as they're designed to be used together). It boasts a bend lifespan of over 15,000 bends, making it exceptionally durable.
