I just ordered a PeachTree Nova Amp.
Is the usb port the correct way to connect to My
VBA?
Just wondering if anyone can help.
I have been listening through my Rotel, with
anolog output and it's great, but it has no
digital inputs.
I am hoping the Nova is more digital friendly.
Do I have to make any changes with My VBA?

I have never tested this amp with VortexBox but you should be able to just connect the USB input to your VortexBox.

Cool…
I will update after I get it all hooked up.
My VBA has become my new favorite toy.
Thanks Andrew for all the work you are
putting into it!

No problem, please tell us how it works. I realy like the Peachtree and we might try to do a promotion with them or something if it works well.

Have my new Peachtree Nova connected to the VBA via USB.
The sound is fantastic and the Nova is a truly beautiful amp.
The built in DAC sounds great and now my old Definitive
BP-6B loudspeakers sound better than ever.

kdnel, what vortexbox player configuration settings are you using for your Nova? I have tried both hw:0,0 and Default and get major stuttering. The Nova sounds great via coax from my sb receiver, but I'd like to connect directly to my VBA via USB and use the SB receiver for another room… Any suggestions?
