A Very Basic Charlize2 Question
«

December 09, 2008, 10:43:14 PM »
I'm using a Promitheus Audio DAC, which according to Nickolas has an output
voltage of 2-5mV. He didn't think it would be a problem with Charlize2,
but I want to be absolutely sure.
Any help much appreciated, John.

hi emanresu
output voltage of 2-5mv? i think that's 2-5v?
yes, i don't think there is a problem with charlize. however what's the volume control or preamp you intend to use in between?

Thanks for replying Yeo. Nick said mV, not sure if that was a typo?
I'm using a hard drive based media player, and intended to use it's
volume control ( and remote), and Charlize as a power amp.
Do you see any issues with that setup?

5mv will sound very faint on almost all amps/speakers.
We should have a new volume control out within a week.
For now, you could use your setup.

Yeo, I'm sorry, but I think my original question has been misconstrued. Blame my complete beginner status.
Because charlize has no input coupling capacitor, you say "no feeding her DC voltage,OK." I asked Nicholas
about this and he said, "the dac has a low output voltage in the 2-5mV. I don't think this would be a problem."
I'm trying to make sure I don't blow her up. The volume is fine with this setup and my current amp.
Sorry again to have confused things. John.
