I just bought a new Roku TV and would like to hook it to my speakers.
TV = tcl 55s425-ca.
This has audio outputs:
- analog - the usual headphone jack, likely without volume control
- digital 1 - looks like a TOSLink
- digital 2 - HDMI ARC - new to me, but sounds promising.
My speakers are Tannoy Reveal 602. These are powered speakers, which require balanced input via XLR.
For my past TV's I ran everything off a Mac Mini and used the USB output to a Presonus Audiobox USB, which was the DAC and volume control.
That solution won't work any more.
Ideally, I would prefer to control the volume from the remote, hence use the HDMI ARC.
Does anyone know of a solution that would allow HDMI ARC input, that ends up as XLR (Balanced) output?
Emotiva XDA is one that I think would work?
I'm not looking to split hairs here for which DAC is the absolute best. Rather just one that works as above
Thanks for the help!
