Hello Ron,
I understand now why you know so much about the Foundation.
Looks like you own one.
I got a very good deal and I jumped on it.
Thought it would go well with my HTS amplifier.
Wanted to run something by you that my dealer friend just told me.
I am quoting here,
There is not a good way to utilize an outboard DAC with the Foundation since it does not have a post decode output.
There would be noise and volume issues that can not be controlled.
From my understanding,
the foundation does not have the proper input to take advantage of a High End DAC.
Now I see why some people on this form keep mentioning PS Audio as an example.
Due to the fact that they are set up for this.
They have Direct Stream.
Please let me know what you think?
Would hate to purchase an external DAC and find out it does not improve SQ in Analog stereo mode.
Ps,
Sorry for the pun,
would still like to be able to get it to work in pre amp mode.
It only seems to come up in CD mode.
I am not getting any signal there.
Think this has something to do with the way the sources have been previously been set up.
Time to read the manual once again.
