Hi all, first thread here.
Long story short :
My AMP is not really suited to my use anymore and is starting to fail.
So I'm considering buying a new amp and I'm looking at the Topping PA5 II & 3e Audio A5...
I would have loved a remote control and internal power supply, but these are absolutely optional.
However, what is mandatory in my setup is a way to connect my subwoofer.
A sub out would be nice but even a full range pre-out is ok (still matching with the main volume).
I have only line in on my sub, no line out, no speaker level input...
My actual DAC is a SMSL SU-1, I believe it make sense to swap my DAC together with the AMP.
So, looking to the cheap balanced dacs, but I see no subwoofer output.
I've been thinking also at RCA splitters from a DAC with volume control, to feed both the AMP and the SUB,
but now the problem is I also got a turntable and phono preamp which would be connected directly to the amp without feeding the sub !
How do you guys connect your subwoofer with these amps ?
I'm not writing too much to avoid loosing your interest. Therefore if needed, I can give more context or a description of my setup.
Thank you for any advice !
