Mini tos out and in to both with provide a good digital signal. Other option is to use and Airport Express and beam it wirelessly to the AE and use the AE/s digital out and in to your dac. This is my case now, I bypass the computer dac and goes straight in to my audio dac. Sounds great. A used AE is only 79 bucks at apple, but you also can get a long tos cord for cheap. There are some limitations to tos vs coax digital to think about too.
iMac far from audo rack - any suggestions?
Hi - I am curretly using an AppleTV as a transport (WAV files only) that connects via Toslink to my Reimyo DAC. I would like to go a step further and use my iMac/iTunes with Amarraaudio and feed my DAC.
The thing is that my iMac will be about 6 meters away from my audio rack, and since the only way to go out in digital domain from it is thru an USB port, I plan to use a PS Audio or similar USB/Coax converter.
Any ideas on how to face this issue besides moving the iMac to the rack itself?
Regards,
Fernando
