A kind friend let me borrow his P3 regenerator so I can stop waffling on a power solution, while I audition I will not be able to run my full rig due to the power consumption ceiling and having six outlets. So I have to make a compromise on what components to prioritize:
Outlets:
- Pre-amp
- DAC (always on)
- DAC (always on)
- Tube headphone amp
- SS headphone amp
This leaves me with one outlet left for the following:
- CD Transport
- Pi2AES
- Turntable (if so, then really need two outlets to include the phono stage)
- Extra SS or tube amp slot
If I decide to go the regenerator route, I will not have this issue as I will go for P12, or used P10.
Which of the above should occupy the sixth slot? The two DACs must be connected at all times otherwise it takes a day or so to get to optimal temp.
Appreciate any opinions, thank you.
