Re: NVA amps with passive preamps

"but will work OK with active pre-amps or direct feed from a DAC"

So that OK does not mean that can be used with active circuits? Maybe the meaning is it is possible but not advised?

Thanxs

NVA amps with passive preamps

My A30MKii is actually connected to a active line stage of classic design. I plann in future to try a passive and possibly order a NVA.

Re: NVA Substitute.

I had very expensive stuff, when youngster, in a booming economy and thick wallet. Almost all sounded great but only two connected myself with music. One is NVA, the other was 15 times more expensive. Enjoy music!

My 97db sensible speakers don't need more power than A30mkii

I wonder when my upgrade path is better off upgrading cables or upgrade to a mono set amps. Actual cables are Ls1 and a SSC ic and my speakers are not missing bottom end.

Thanx

As i planned to order one Nva cable, thè question trigger my attention. Again it's probably a compromise between ...
