Topic: ADI-2 DAC + Liquid Platinum Unity Gain
Hello,
I have an ADI-2 DAC & Liquid Platinum AMP. I was told by numerous people that to setup unity gain properly on LP, I need to set the volume knob to 1:30 and adjust my DAC's pre-amp to the desired listening level. I've done that, and it sounds good, but I just want to make sure there isn't any downsides to it.
My settings are:
Volume: -27dB
Ref Level: -5dBu
Auto Ref Level: On
Line Out XLR
I've also EQ'd quite a bit as well. Is there a better way to do this, and am I getting any performance hits from doing it like this?
Thank you!
