Thanks Al for the info.
If I'm right by changing my amps input voltage down to just 1 volt ( instead of 2) I'll get about 25 watts available of my amps 100watts rather than just the six I was currently getting. I think my Speakers (Harbeth M40.1s 84db) would appreciate a little more!.
Maybe I should also change my Wadia's output up to 1 volt to match the amps 1v input but I'm sure this would then put my volume range around the 50s-60s and wadia recommends 75+ as below will start 16 bit loss (although your posts suggests it could be a lower volume level before this happens.
Its interesting that most people and Wadia encourage owners to change the internal voltage settings to enable the volume control to stay as high as possible and above 75( which surely in most cases would be to a lower voltage than the amps input voltage) but do they realize that by doing so they are seriously reducing there amps output as in my case from 100 watts available to only 6! I certainly didn't.
As Harbeth recommends between 50-150 watts Maybe i need to get a 200-400 watt amp with an input voltage of 1 volt to enable me to still get my 50-100watts!
