I agree with Bryan's posts, but in addition I would add that it is best to take advantage of the balanced inputs on any Atma-sphere amplifier. Although the S30s will sound great when driven via the single-ended (RCA) inputs, there is a certain something that is gained by driving them via the balanced (XLR) inputs, using a truly balanced-output source, not a device that adds parts at its output to derive a balanced output from a single-ended one. In the latter case, one is probably better off using the single-ended outputs of the cdp to drive the single-ended inputs on the S30, etc. If your unit has balanced outputs, consult your owner's manual to determine whether the output stage is truly balanced or not. You will also get a little more gain via true balanced connections.
