JjR Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I'm just wondering if its worth even to spend the money for a pre-amp or tuner w/ preamp? The D2 has a FM tuner in it and I live in Chicago so all stations are basically loud and clear. Should I spend the money for a preamp and why? FWIW The records are all stored away safe and sound.

Dennie Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Do you plan on listening to CD's? Do you have SACD's, DVD-A's? Then a CD player or Universal Player would be needed and you would need a pre-amp for that. But if your only going to listen to MP3's, then the Cowon D2 should be fine.

JjR Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 Gave up CD's a long time ago (went from vinyl to back up to CD then just MP3 or FLAC). Just about 10 minutes ago I turned up the D2 ( EQ set at flat) to 50, 2505 set at mid range on the volume for the first time. Yikes! Also have tried the D2 's FM tuner and sounds great. Or let me revise my question, is it worth spending the money for a pre-amp to play the D2 through? Would I get any better sound?
