Fidelizer Pro is installed. OS is Win 11.
The DAC is connected to the Pre90 using Elecaudio OCC cable (I prefer this to the Neotech commonly used) using balanced connections, which is then connected to the Mod 686 using balanced connections, and then OCC speaker cable. The DAC is powered by a LDA linear PSU.
