Your choices are:
- Put analog flex between DAC and amp. You could use either volume control, but I'd pick one.
- Put digital flex between wiim and DAC, with crossover in Flex and new DAC for subs (or a sub with a DAC). Need to use flex volume.
- Put digital flex between wiim and DAC, use 3 DAC outputs. Use crossover on sub. Speakers get full range. Use DAC or flex volume control.
#1 is the normal way to use the flex. #2 works just as well. #3 has no new gear, keeps the DAC volume control, but has no high pass filter for speakers. DIRAC would do the same thing in all 3 configurations (DIRAC is only 2 channels and expects the crossover to happen after it).
I had a knee-jerk reaction to avoid putting something between the benchmark gear, as it is so well engineered to work together. But I imagine the difference is not perceptible.
