I am planning on using my Ray Samuels HR-2 headphone amp with my McIntosh SACD player.
But I am wondering about connecting the HR-2 via interconnects to the SACD player directly. Is there any benefit to connecting my HR-2 to my integrated amp (McIntosh MA6600) which is balanced connected to the SACD player? Would that be classified as pre-amping? I am really not sure how to proceed feeding the source signal through the McIntosh and then through RCA interconnects to the HR-2.
Any advice??
