Direct converter plug should be better than with additional cable in my opinion la. Since it's for transferring sound signal, the lesser distance it takes, the sound lost would be minimised.

your pioneer have coaxial in? If yes you just need an audio coaxial cable. If you don't have you need a DAC to convert coaxial digital to RCA then only go into your pioneer.
Forumers correct me if i'm wrong. For HDMI part, i'm not so sure. |

Thanks in advance Is this pioneer XV-DV555 come bundle with other stuff? cos the set model name will be different.I can't find any documents for pioneer XV-DV555 except the service manual. From that manual, mention there is HDMI connection. I believe can use HDMI. And better to snap a pic for back panel and post here. |

QUOTE(davidtron @ Jan 2 2012, 12:38 PM) Thanks for the reply. My Pioneer doesn't have HDMI slot. I bought the 1 rca split to 2 audio rca (red and white) and plug it in as i do ask 1 of the electrician guy. But it doesn't help. According to the eletrician he says that the coaxial can be replace with with rca plug so i bought 1 and try. But can't work. The sound still come from the LED. I try to swicth of the volume from the led but the sound still doesn't come out from the pioneer. Will try to snap the pic from the rear panel for this 2 player. So what you mean is you directly plug from coaxial out to RCA in? Coaxial digital RCA analogue I don't think can directly work. Thanks for the help  |

Thank you very much You see, coaxial out are digital, what we listen is analogue, DAC stands for Digital to Analogue Converter, it converts digital signals to analogue signals, simple  If you want to get a affordable one you can try asking for Fiio D3, it accepts Coaxial in and RCA out: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2039179/all Hope it solves your problem  This post has been edited by more2teayap: Jan 3 2012, 02:59 PM |
