Hello
I have JDS Labs Atom and I want to use it in combo with my internal onboard 32-bit DAC which is pretty good. Now the thing is that I also have dual op-amps so the signal from DAC is amplified by internal op-amps and then it was sent to my JDS Labs Atom AMP. That is dual amping and it is not that great option. I know internal AMP is working because I can choose between three power options in Realtek control center (Balance, Dynamic or Ultimate) and every one of them is feeding my external AMP with different signal strength. Maybe on Balanced mode (quietest mode) internal amps aren't working but I can not confirm that.
While waiting for JDS to start selling their Atom DAC, what do you guys think how can I bypass onboard AMP and use onboard just as a DAC.
