Yea, I kind of thought the Airport Express either works or doesn’t too but I’ve tried with two different phones and get the same result. I don’t see any changes on sound quality from the phone and have the equalizer turned off. What about the optical cable between the airport and the DAC? I...
Hi folks, just a quick question about my DAC setup. I have the DAC running to my Yamaha CR2020 and to a set of Polk M7s and using an Apple Airport Express to received the stream from my phone. The Airport Express is connected via optical cable to the DAC and the DAC is connected via RCA cables...
