Am seriously considering picking up a pair of 8s' as it looks as if a numbefr of distributors are soon to be receiving an allotment.
All of my listening is via ripped FLAC (Red book CD & some higher sampling rate selections) and SACD dsd files
If i feed the 8C's an already converted analog signal from my DAC, it would have to be converted to digital (massaged by the DSP) and then a round trip conversion back to analog again. I am assuming i want to avoid the unnecessary additional conversions by feeding it a digital signal. What / where are current owners finding AES outputs on audio hardware?
Is anyone just feeding them analog signals and not worrying about it since any added problems from dual conversions are eventually EQ'ed out?
What color scheme did you pick and if you were to do it over again would you stick with your original choice?
