Hi everyone! This is my first post ever. Love this forum, though I often don't understand the technical terms.
I just ordered the SU-9 and it should be here in a few days. I've had a couple Schiit DACs and neither of them had a volume control. So I never really worried about that.
With the SU-9, should I just leave it on fixed volume or should I have it on variable then be able to change the volume? I'm assuming that it goes to 99 if it's fixed.
I will pair it with the the Monolith THX 887 that I just got today and I already love it (using it with the Modi 3 at the moment, but will run everything balanced once I get the SU-9). Ideally, I'd like to keep it simple and change the volume on the amp, but would that hurt overall performance if the volume on the SU-9 is always the same?
I apologize if it's a stupid question but I tried googling this and I never quite got a clear answer.
