Hi, which card are you using IA30 or IA 35?
I just start with my external phonostage-have still my IA35 card in-
as the IA30 or IA35 works in conjuction with the IA00 and is limited to 48kHz.
My plan is to feed with the external phonostage the IA45-its a 96/24 card)- to get a better sound overall.
As my 861 is in repair from lightning i cant plug the IA45 card in the 800(dont know whats the reason for that).
So i dry it with the IA 00 (without the IA35) and its sound great,better then the internal IA 35 card.
I will make more test in the next weeks as the phonostage have to break in and also the new cable(need one connection more as previous).
I have the graham slee revelation
