I have this, you can input 2 DACS and have 4 outputs for amps or active speakers, or the other way , 4 in, 2 out, Doesn't impact sound quality, to my ears at least. :

Check out these switch boxes.

The lead time was a little long as he is based out of Portugal but it is all custom handmade work built to order and it blends in well with an existing setup.

I use this as a 1 to 4 switch (1 DAC to 4 amps) and have no noise:

You can probably string two back-to-back and make a 4-to-4 switch.

I do something similar as my DAC needs to feed both my stereo and my headphone amp(s). The last two DAC's I've used were both balanced so they include RCA SE outputs and XLR balanced outputs. You could go the most basic route and use a splitter cable, this does reduce the overall voltage reaching either source. In my case I ran this setup on the XLR outputs, with the already higher voltage from the XLR splitting the signal didn't create issues on the downstream gear. Passive pre-amps will probably result in the least alteration of the signal. In the end getting a DAC with more outputs would be the best option, also the most the expensive. For three outputs you are looking at something like the Benchmark DAC 3 or Gungnir.

E-MU Teak Repair - Any Experience?
Hello, I am wondering if anybody has any experience contacting E-MU support, sending them headphones for repair, or getting them back fixed. Can anybody share any experience? I have been emailing them for a while now, but nobody has responded. Thank you.

pc38x still has audio coming through with the volume dial turned all the way down
Finally got my hands on the pc38x. I mostly wanted to try this headset because of all the good things i heard about it. Out of the box i wasn’t really impressed. My 50 dollar astros were just as loud if not louder. After setting up an EQ on dolby access i got them sounding a little better. But one thing that really bothers me is the volume dial on the headset. When i turn it all the way down there’s so much audio still coming through, like the headset is turned up 10-20%. Is this normal?

My little room work in progress.
It's not done, I apologize for the mess. Health issues have put this on hold. It's a small room and I'm likely to sell off my KEF 104.2 loudspeakers and some other gear after surrendering the living room to my wife after her patience of 35 years. She deserved her own little sanctuary.

New addition to the stable.
I made the decision to take advantage of the $600. price on the HiFiMan Arya Stealth, here pictured with the Meze 109 Pro. I think 2025 is going to be a really uneventful year so far as new purchases. I've also upgraded my Fiio BTR7 to the newly released BTR17 and I purchased the Earmen stack which consists of Amplifier, Linear PS, DAC & Streamer.
