I echo the sentiments that a pre-amp is one of the most important components you can have. Get a good one or don't get one at all.
I love what tubes in the pre have done for my system.

Best Preamp = No Preamp?
I'm currently looking for some DACs. I'm looking at Benchmark DAC1, Bel Canto DAC3, Slim Devices Transporter, etc...
I noticed most of these newest high performance DACs have built in volume control with remote.
I'm thinking that I can connect these DACs directly to my Power Amp skipping preamp.
Is that right thinking? Why go through additional peice of device when I can avoid? Anybody doing it that way?
What'll be the pros and cons?
