Hi,
I'm wondering what the best way (highest sound quality) to adjust the volume for songs, considering that for my setup of PC --> DAC1 --> GS-1, I have the following options:
* volume on the PC
* volume on DAC1
* volume on GS-1 amp
So for example do I put the volume on PC and volume on DAC1 at max or near max and then the GS-1 would be pretty low accordingly?
Right now I just have both the DAC1 and the GS-1 at approximately halfway until I find out the Approved Head-Fi way of doing it
Not sure if this matters but GS-1 apparently has stepped attenuators (although I still hear sound in between the notches of the knob?) and DAC1 has the same thing -- there are clicks on the volume knob but I hear sounds in between the notches.
Thanks in advance!
Brian
