Wondering if anyone has any experience using the Citypulse 2.03 DAC as a preamp for a speaker setup ?
I am trying to simplify + improve my current living room setup:
PC --> Zhaolu 1.3 DAC --> Acurus preamp --> Acurus power amp --> Infinity alpha 40 (large tower) speakers
The idea is to replace the Zhaolu DAC and the preamp with the Citypulse so that I end up with:
PC --> Citypulse --> Acurus power amp --> speakers
That way I get a better DAC, a remote control and one less component.
But I have heard a couple of negative reports about the variable output of the Citypulse. One person found the treble "sibilant" and the other complained of some hiss.
