Does combining a digital amp, with a digital XO increase chance of artifacts?

sorry to double post but I got NO ANSWER on the amp forum.

My preamp does not output signal digitally (C2200). So it goes in analogue to my Brytson XO.
I am thinking of DCX 2496 which is digital, with XLR ins and outs. From there it would go to my digital amps (Spectron Musician and D-Sonic ICE). Does this twice digital sampling of the signal increase the odds I will hear digital distortion such as grain, similar to the way audio .wav, .FLAC. files suffer when you convert them from one format to another (and back).

Class D/PWM is not inherantly digital - lne937s 14:18:52 03/31/08 (1)

Forget whether or not your preamp can output digital ... - andyr 19:09:15 03/30/08 (0)
