New member Username: VargesPost Number: 1 Registered: Feb-06 | Hi, my receiver has 1 digital coax input and 3 optical inputs. my dvd player and cable providers are both digital coax ouputs. i was considering buying "DAYTON DAC-CO COAXIAL TO OPTICAL CONVERTER" at Amazon to convert one of my inputs to optical. Would anyone be able to tell me the pros and cons of this approach. Will I lose sound quality? how good is this particular converter? is there any risk of damage if i use the converter? are there other options i can consider? thanks varges |

Either you have sound after the conversion or you don't, there's no in-between. All you need is an available plug-in for its power. http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?DID=7&Product_ID=16150 |
