Hey all,
I have a basic question that I'm sure has a simple answer, but for some reason it's confounding me.
I own a Croft Integrated amp, which has an unbalanced Line Out and 3 unbalanced line ins. I am trying to add a headphone amp and a DAC – if possible via a one-box solution (in particular I'm interested in the Woo Audio Firefly).
My question: is that possible with the Woo...and if so, how do I connect the Firefly to the amp in such a way that I can use headphones to listen to both my digital source (via the DAC) and to records (via the Croft's built-in phono stage)? If I connect line out of the Croft to line in on the Firefly, that solves the headphone problem (as I understand it), but then don't I need an output from the Woo into one of the Croft's inputs to listen to the DAC through speakers? I see that the Woo has a selector switch to toggle between RCA ins & USB source, but that doesn't solve the problem of how to select the DAC as an input on the Croft...
Hope that's understandable...it's confusing as hell to me
Thanks in advance for your help..
