Can someone talk me through this one? Signal output from the DAC (4v), it has its own digital volume control which is currently bypassed for full output. It goes through the integrated amplifier preamp stage, which is passive it turns out. Should I expect a difference between the output attenuation from the DAC and the volume pot on the preamp? Are they doing exactly the same thing?
DAC volume is likely to be in digital domain. I would imagine you are best off set up as current, with DAC vol bypassed and using the analogue gain control on pre amp.
