To all sifu sifu, i'm not sure whether this is the correct forum to post a question on home theather setup. I bought a bluray player philips BDP2600, i found out that the rear only have hdmi and audio coaxial slot only. I want to connect it to my pioneer XV-DV555. I do i get it done? What type of cable i need to have? Thanks in advance

QUOTE(nordingh @ Jan 2 2012, 01:32 PM) get a proper coax cable. I try to but no point cos my pioneer don't have that slot for coaxial... soo bad... should have look into it 1st before purchasing that bluray player...   QUOTE(more2teayap @ Jan 2 2012, 03:25 PM) 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. Yeah... that's correct... Should have not listen to that electrician...  |

QUOTE(more2teayap @ Jan 3 2012, 02:57 PM) 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 I already call up that guy and he says that he never try it on Blu-ray player to Amp, he is more on PCs... Thanks for the help again.. really appreciate... 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  QUOTE(hongrui @ Jan 3 2012, 05:01 PM) basically what more2teayap said. Really need to enjoy and feel how great its the blu-ray master dolby recording... solution is to chg my current pioneer home theater system with the blu-ray home theater system... Thanks for the great explanation... really appreciate all the advice....however, one thing to note is that you will be losing out on all the 5.1 / 7.1 Master Dolby recordings on your blu-rays. the audiophile DACs are geared towards stereo 2.0 audio reproduction. i am personally unaware of any DACs that decode 5.1 / 7.1 Dolby surround. the suggestion i put forth earlier is suitable if you are using your blu-ray player to play stereo 2.0 music. if you are going to be using it for movies and stuff, you will be disappointed. |
