  I use the analogue pass through for a 2 ch Arcam CD92. It is transparent and comparable to what I get out of my Bryston pre.

  This is a very good pre/pro. Shines with music, whispers and aliens destroying earth. The dialogue is excellent. It provides a surrounding experience.

  I did a quick test of the analog pass through. I ran the output of an SACD player through it. The results were *not* good. It definitely was not transparent, and added fair amount of high frequency harshness, in effect, wiping out most of the advantages of the SACD format.

  Note that my testing was done using a $3000 Stax electrostatic headphone/amp where I could easily switch between the two sources (through Anthem and direct). Your mileage with less transparent equipment may vary.
