Dirac Live Bass Control with NAD M66

[Iceee]

1) If I want to use better DAC than the one in the Nad M66 (with front speakers, 2 subs and Dirac live bass control), will Dirac recognize 2 subs (each channel) individually if I connect PC (USB) - Okto 8 pro and then Okto 8 pro AES out to Nad M66 AES in? Is that possible

2) Can I use PC (Windows) Dirac suite instead Dirac on NAD M66 in that case

Hi,

Do you really needed a "better" dac?
I doubt you would hear any difference.

You are probably right, but still I want to be peaceful that I did everything for optimal sound quality...

There's no correlation of sound quality and the numbers you see at the reviews once you reach 90-100dB THD+N or simply put you don't hear something broken or noise.
You're just fine as you are.

You would need to connect the Subs directly to the Okto Pro, and use the M66 as a preamp only for the L+R channels. But I don't see the point of doing that... And yes, you would need the PC Dircac DLBC suite for this.
