It's pretty unique but not sure about that approach

I'm not a fan of the all-in-one approach with preamp and DAC combined and having the analog inputs first converted to digital. It's good that the M66 will have an analog direct mode but having the DAC in there would be wasted on me.
I have to admit that I'm loving the sound of the pedestrian basic black NAD C 298 Purifi amp. It would be nice if NAD came out with a matching analog only preamp. Maybe they have one but I'm not sure.
