    As a film editor I realize why even in the professional world we stick to analog...it works better. Sometimes digital sounds cleaner but most of the time it also has less S/N response because most consumer digital audio has limited bandwidth. The fact that you have to use a different remote for the volume to the powered speakers shows it's limits as well. Analog audio's signal ( bandwidth and voltage) directly correspond to the sound that the audio equipment emits. Frankly, digital audio signals are only useful with the I/O of computers. Otherwise stick to analog...your life will be easier.

  • @celticlofts
    @celticlofts Před rokem +1

    The fact that you can use the headphones AND listen through the speakers would be helpful for someone who has hearing difficulties. It means that one can listen through the speakers at the volume level they desire while the person with the hearing difficulties can listen at the volume they desire through the headphones. I wonder it it's possible to add a Bluetooth transmitter to the converter so you could use wireless headphones?

    Hey, Tech Steve. I have my LG C2 tv hooked up to a Marantz stereo amplifier via optical out. Everything is hooked up tight and there are no loose wires or faulty wires.
    I experience sudden drop in the audio volume (for a millisecond) every now and then. There are no occuring intervals, just randomly. It's extraordinary irritating, and as of writing this comment, I opt to use the phono connection although I feel as tho I am missing some of the quality -- I may be wrong. Do you have any tips?

    Here I thought that digital out was already converted to analog. I didn't know about that PCM part I'll have to see if my Samsung has that. I've been wondering if I need a DAC and that is how I got here. Would a DAC make the sound better from Hulu to Roku plus HDMI to TV, TV digital out to DAC, DAC to Onkyo HT?

      I'm not concerned about the RCA outputs to the SUB, I just wanted to know if this box will output to 2 devices at the same time, and from what I think you said and showed in the video, it looks like the box will output to the RCA jacks AND the headphone jack at the same time, so this should dual output correct?

    I just purchased an LG tv last week, i brought a cheap $8 DAC and they worked well with my old Logitech 5.1 speakers. After two days the sound to the external was no longer working, The people at LG told me that DACs were not good to use and that it has to be a more direct connection with an optical connection. Any thoughts on this from anyone please? I believe something went wrong on the mother board but LG my not want to cover the warranty work.
