As the title asks, I’m trying to find a standalone phono stage that both uses a DSP to perform the RIAA eq and outputs digital in some form.
I’ve found phono stages that A/D to do RIAA EQ in DSP, then D/A right back to output, and I can find phono stages that have a digital output, but I can’t find confirmation of a phono stage that does both. I’m intrigued by the idea of using DSP to make a better preamp, but it seems more useful to use my system’s existing DAC to d/a the signal back rather than rely on what is built-in.
