I have done this to 3 Dacs now. In my 3 I have just wired direct from the analogue out pins of the Dac chip. I also add some small value caps (2.2uf - 4.7uf) and if neccessary for impedance matching, a resistor on each channel tied to ground (by the way I was criticised on here for impedance matching to the pre-amp in this way. can't remember why now) It works for me ok.
