I would think these high voltage (correction) DACspreampswould mate well with a good passive preamp. Unfortunately my current tube pre has a very high gain.
I'm confidant X20 can be reigned in using any number of accoutrements (PUC2 lite, DSD, whiplash polestar, pink ear muffs)
My primary interest ATM is that IIS port and I'm really liked the it with the mapleshade hdmi cable.
If the passive preamp is based on autoformers, then these must be able to support quite high input voltage without saturating or otherwise the gain of the power amp must be quite high.
