Hi there,
Your help would be greatly appreciated! I’ve been actively tri-amping for quite some time, using a D-23 Pioneer Crossover. My full chain being:
- rca turntable
- two digital sources: Roon via Ropieee and optical output from Samsung TV, both connected to a Chord Qutest DAC; only needed to select one of those sources on the DAC
- the turntable and the DAC connected to a Goldnote preamp
- the preamp connected to the D-23
- and the three pairs of RCA outputs connected to each power amp
Got the Okto, and I’m almost getting rid of the turntable and the GN preamp. Buuuuuuuuuut……….. I cannot seem to make the TV work.
I set Roon up to correctly feed the Okto three pairs of channels to its (sole) USB input - frequency curves and sound level correctly set on the Roon DSP. So local music library, Tidal and Qobuz are working just nice.
Problem is I do need to feed the DAC with the optical signal coming out from the TV: Youtube, Spotify, Apple TV and various other source are using this signal to be played. I’ve been reading about the entrypoints for Roon and the like, and it seems that there are not many options for what I need.
Any suggestions on what I should look for?? I do want to have an electronic crossover capable of feeding the DAC8 with multiple channels. The balanced outputs of the Okto are JUST GREAT!
I would greatly appreciate your help.
Many regards!
