    JVC DVD Cinema System TH-R3 wont registre Optical Cable

    I've recently bought a Chromecast: Audio to connect my JVC so I could play music with the use of Spotify or other digital music applications. I then discovered that connecting it to the JVC was not possible with the cables shipped with it, so I decided to buy a 3.5mm.minijack-optical converter...

    Chromecast (not CCA) for Audio Streaming

    I have a first gen Chromecast that's currently unused. A friend has a Denon AVR-791 with HDMI that's used in a 2-channel system. How well will these old CC's work for streaming audio? According to Denon, this receiver will handle 24/96 over HDMI, but I don't know how that translates to audio...

    Chromecast Ultra into Denon AVR-3500H.... good enough?

    Hello everybody, I should start out by saying that I am not nearly the perfectionist that many people on this forum are. I mostly listen to Spotify and Plex FLAC for my music. I’m thinking about going back to Tidal, but need to know if my current setup is worth it or if any relatively simple...

    Headphones with built-in Chromecast?

    Does anyone make such a thing? I know there are some speakers with Chromecast (Sony, B&O) on the market but I haven't seen headphones. Seems like it would be an obvious addition to Googles home assistant line. A microphone would let you query the assistant. It would have much better range...

    Chromecast HDMI vs Chromcast Audio optical out.... is there a difference?

    Hey there, I currently use a 2nd Gen Chromecast running through an Oppo BDP-103 to stream music to my main system. I also have a Chromecast Audio and DAC I could use, but the ease of use of the single Chromecast for Audio and Movies is really nice. Is there any sound quality difference...

    Help with chromecast and Sansui 9090

    Hello, I recently purchased a Sansui 9090 and will be streaming Spotify via Chromecast from my iPhone/Laptop. My question has to do with phone volume vs. Sansui volume knob. If my phone volume output is say, 50%, I can obviously turn up the Sansui volume knob to compensate. If my phone volume...

    My experience leaving Spotify/Chromecast Audio and Moving to Deezer/Bluesound Node 2i

    So a bit ago I posted a thread asking for some advice to fix a couple issues I was having with Spotify/Chromecast Audio, and I didn't get any responses, so I decided to make some adjustments and share my experience in the event anyone else might be in the same boat. My previous streaming setup...

    Seeking a new streaming option

    Looking for a little bit of help and I'm hoping that maybe someone can make a suggestion as to a solution for streaming to my vintage setup. My current solution is a Chromecast Audio, running into a Topping D50 DAC, and then out to my Pioneer SX-950. My streaming service of choice is Spotify...

    DTS via Chromecast causing havoc with my DAC

    Hi all, My current setup is a Chromecast (gen2) running to an HDMI audio extractor (set to 2CH PCM) and then optical out to a Musical Fidelity vDac2. There is a projector in the mix which I use a few times a week for movies, but this setup is 80% Tidal streaming. For whatever reason the...

    Ideal audio output level from Chromecast to DAC?

    Hey there, I have a Musical Fidelity VDAC II that I feed my main system with. I use a Chromecast with an HDMI optical audio extractor as my source (I've done A/B between this setup and a Chromecast Audio with optical out and found no difference) At any rate, I stream TIDAL HiFi to the system...

    How to get the most out of tidal?

    1) using a CCA at the moment straight into a Yamaha as2100. Need a dac obviously. CCA can't to MQA, but that's fine for now. If I streamed a flac tidal stream into the CCA, then used the optical out on the CCA to go into a dac/reclocker/something else, what would be the best device to use...
