Topic: Adi-2 dac FS on vintage amp
Hi all,
Have been running the adi-2 fs for a while now and all fine! But might be doing something wrong…
Page 62 of manual states operation in hifi environment.. the recommended level setting to equal roughly 2V.
Well i’m running a Sansui au-x901 integrated amp(now in integrated mode, rca from adi2 to cd input).
I just checked the manual: http://akdatabase.com/AKview/albums/us … Manual.pdf
Which gives me an input sensitivity of 150mV/47 kOhms. For CD/Line.
Adi currently at +7dbu -10db. (Auto) As i have no clue what im doing.
Can you help me explain:
- if i’m cooking my inputs?
- what settings to use (how to calc)
- auto mode on/off for this case?
- would it be preferable to use the sansui’s balanced xlr power amp inputs with 2V 5kOhms ?
Thanks in advance!
