As my tv only has an optical output & bluetooth.

Im torn between the two speakers. Price more less the same.

Should i got for R1280DB for the optical port?

Or go for R1700BT, better spec wise but connect to tv using bluetooth.

Please advise me thx

I own R1280DB and use the optical port from my PS4 / PC. Can vouch for the sound quality. Good product.

3.5" out mean it use the tv dac.
optical out means you need to buy an external dac, which can cover from crap, great to snake oil.
the 1280db have build in dac.

But TS is getting 2.0 PC speakers not 5.1

Whether optical or 3.5mm stereo output, I don't think he can tell much difference.

Really n00b here. I bought a very cheap dac before. Very low volume from tv optical to dac to rca speaker. Friend says i need amp.

So i think better i got optical to speaker with optical port.

dac is not amplifier.
if it says amplifier, it probably a headphone amp.
you need to output it to an amp like in the link above.

but seller is china, so careful it might take a while to arrive.
