Also, how will route the output of your phone preamp?

Hi Craig, I’ll just set the Lumin’s LEEDH volume to about 85% and use the Constellation to tweak final output volume. For the phono stage, I’ll connect that directly to one of the Inspiration’s inputs. As my EAR 324 has XLR OUT, I’ll very likely just get another pair of Shunyata Venom-X XLR ICs for the phono stage as well, as the XLR inputs of the Inspiration sound a skosh better than the RCA’s. Cheers.
