Yeah but then, why adding a 104db SINAD amp to replace a 87db SINAD integrated amp, if it is to use it when the integrated DAC is at 75db SINAD ?It drops to 75 dB at 2 V, and that's in non preamp mode. It's not dramatic if you compare with its cousins such as the AV7705 that is a "separate" prepro.
A full preamp mode is expensive when going even to 5.1.4.
It sounded more cost effective to get an external amp, like the audiophonics 3 channels at 2,000 euros just for LCR and using the integrated one for the remaining channels.
Is it still a valuable option with the combo low gain of the Audiophonics/ low output of the Denon ?
