    Can anyone tell me if i can have this feeding into 2 amplifiers. I want to switch between them both as during the day I use my AV amp for background music and my Valve setup when sat down listening.
    The DAC seems to have 2 audio out on the back (tube and normal) but i can't see on the front selector.

    Thanks for any info!!

    Yes you can Nathan. I use mine in exactly the same way that you are proposing. There is no switch as there is a constant/simultaneous signal from both outputs.
    I use the valve one to my AV amp & the SS to my main system (valves). The synergy was better this way round in my set up.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    Also on normal pres with two split outs you might find an degradation in output impedance but with the tube stage acting as a buffer this should let to better results (assuming you like the tube stage in this that is, and I know some people don't).

    Can this be used as a pre? I just put my phono stage into the aux in and then out to quad 909 and I couldn't attenuate the signal.

    Yes, can't remember if you need to move the internal jumper though

    Given the text above are you joking?

    Move the black jumpers in the pic below. If I remember it is both of them.

    It is in the instructions for the DAC.
