Hope to read impressions from all of you in a week or so. Enjoy!! As I write this I'm having a good listen on my mini!

Mine is pre-shipment as well. So much for shipped actually meaning shipped.

I have a GSX Mini on the way that shoukld get here Monday or Tuesday. YEAH!!!

I read the whole thread in preperation and I am hoping you can help with a setup question (or two).

1) How many volts is recommended for input into the GSX Mini via XLR inputs? 2volts, 3 volts?

2) If folks don't have an answer for the queston above... I have an RME ADI-2 Dac. What have other RME ADI-2 owners set their RME output to, for the GSX (i.e +13db with -4 vol)?

One thing that irks me is that they don't publish full specifications for the Mini. Does the ADI-2 have fixed output voltage? The spec we need for the Mini is the input voltage required to drive the amp to full output. You may need to experiment to find a suitable output voltage for your DAC.

Yes, I think its absurd that we have to guess at such things that are relevant to setting things up properly.

No. The RME output is configurable. We just need to know the input level that the GSX Mini runs best with.

I had the ADI previously. there is a way to lock the output to "line level". its somewhere in that manual.
That is going to be a killer combination as this amp renders detail, lots of it in a pleasing way from what Im hearing.
