Streamer/dac direct into Music Reference RM-200?


Does anyone know if the input sensitivity of the RM-200 Mk I can be driven by running a DAC/Streamer with internal volume control without a preamp?  DAC/streamer is a Aurender A1000.  Thanks for any help.

Search yielded this… might be accurate might be applicable to mk 1 also

 

  • Input Impedance: 15k ohms (single-ended, one leg driven), 30k ohms (balanced)
  • Input Sensitivity: 1.1V for full output

Thanks @tomic601 for the input.  Do you still have RM9?  I'm anxious to get another MR amp back in my system.  Had a RM-10MkII years ago and stupidly sold it.  Roger was a treasure - spoke with him on the phone a couple times, RIP.

Sadly no - I passed it along to a great friend who PSE amplifiers gave up the ghost… with the TAD speakers I now get by with a very heavily modified MC240 tube amp. I do often wonder if in my situation / listening habits / modest needs around SPL, that an RM-10 might be the ultimate….

miss Roger too
