Quick question to anyone who has experience. Do power cables make a significant difference with the Dave? Currently eyeing a Naim Powerline or Siltech Ruby Mountain II
I dont think there is a pre amp section in dave and i also didnt know Chord DACs required a burn in period?

You have an excellent assortment of gear there. Impressive. Enough to open shop.
It's knowing when to stop and just be happy with the sound you have and focus more on music. My final set up will be mscaler/oppo pm1 which i have now and will soon add a TT2. It's all i can afford and want. Just that simple rig is 8.5K Sterling. It satisfies my needs though.
Here is a relatively basic question:
In DAC mode Dave outputs 3v single ended and 6v balanced and sets the volume control to 3db. In order to output the same 3v in balanced, would I set the volume control to -9db?
While I know single ended is most transparent output with the Dave, I am using a couple amps with it. I previously used my V281 single ended and want to replicate the same gain going into the amp via balanced, as I have to use that output for it.
When using balanced-out, change the digital volume by -6dB to get the equivalent voltage output as single-ended out (-6dB = 50%).curious as to what exactly would duplicate 3 volts on balanced
Then isnt that just volume preset for each one then like Relic said and not an actual "pre amp section"?
