Phil prety much said it all. As far as the other outputs go, you will find numerous threads discussing the values of Optical (that's fibre optics...glass interconnects are much better than plastic), coax which there seems tp be a slight(?)preponderance of belief is better than optical and AES/EBU which many (although not all of us...) consider better than coax. These are all digital outputs for use in another DAC. If you were to get a really nice DAC, you can run one component into it via optical, another via coax and the third via AES. That your component has all three outputs just allows you to chose which one you want to use.
What are all these different output jacks for?
I purchaced a CEC 3300 cd player. The Anolog Output section has Analog Balanced output jacks Right and Left and also RCA jacks R and L.
The Digital Out section has Coaxal, Optical and an AES/EBU. ( I assume the digital out would be for using a DAC).
My question is what are the uses and functions for all of these output options?
I will be using a Unison Unico integrated amp. and Meadowlark Ospreys.
Thanks
