Have you tried this yet? If so, in percentage terms, how close do you think the digitized signal is to the original analog signal? (This is something that I'm hoping to try myself at some point, but I don't have a good analog source right now.)

Nope, I did not try AD any better source then FM with Pacific. I did try it with Lavry Gold, the result was so-so but I knew that I did it very badly and I was not going for “best” results. I need to rewire everything to do it “properly” and it is not very inconvenient for me. Also, I do not have a lot of motivation to convert LP or Tape to high-resolution files. If I have an AD permanently plugged into one of the outputs of my preamp, as I proposed above then it might be a game changer…

Also, there was recently an interesting observation that I am not sure how to interpret. When I had Lavry Gold AD and Lavry Gold DA plays into each other and compared the sound of my FM from SU-1X direct with the sound of AD-DAW-DA chain then I heard absolutely no difference. With replacing the Lavry Gold AD-DAW-DA to Pacific AD-DAW-DA I did observe a minor difference, not improvement of courses…
