Mac mini to eq using toslink?


I am wanting to try to use my behringer dac to see if it improves the sound of my stereo. Would i be able to use a mini toslink adapter and toslink cable and then go to the eq from the mac mini? Thus keeping it in the digital realm before the dac?

You are right. I messed up the question. I meant from mac mini to behringer eq then to a paradesea dac. Sorry for the confusion
Rb,
I have a paradesea usb dac, what is a matter with that? Also, to use a toslink from the mac mini you would need to use an adapter{ mini jack/toslink } as there is not an optical output that i know of.
Rb,
The paradesea is the dac that sells for $500 on ebay. A lot of agon members have it or have tried it. Usually gets very good reviews when compared to pricier dacs.

I will try out the optical connection. I am assuming you are saying the optical connection is better than the usb. Is this correct?
