are any or both of these items able to be hooked up to my Isabella DAC. I have athe usb port on the dac.
i believe all i have to do is plug the airport into an electrical socket and use the mini toslink to toslink Vinnie mentioned above and hopefully i have music thru itunes.
Any problems with the high jitter from the Apple TV, Vinnie? Does your DAC re-clock? If not is anyone using an affordable re-clocker like a Monarchy DIP or Theta TLC with your DAC that you know of?
Although a standard Toslink cable will work with a Mini-Toslink to Toslink adapter, I prefer to not use an adapter (with any cables) if possible, and use a Mini-Toslink to Toslink cable as Vinnie recommends.
While on the subject of Toslink, any particular one you and/or your customers have had good results with?I'm going to take a drive to your new place this summer, Vinnie. A 90 minute drive isn't too far to audition what seems like a great DAC.
I haven't experienced any interference or noise problems,
Not too ecectronically inclined as you can read so undoubtedly will have more questions as i go.thanks again.Bob
I don't think you can do Pandora, Rhapsody, etc in the Apple TV. I'm pretty sure there are some hacks out there for it, but I don't get into that stuff.No idea when it comes to the Airport express.
But the glass fiber cables are supposed to sound the best. For example:http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=184-172&AID=1457538&PID=3640530&SID=skim475X763and:http://www.parts-express.com//pe/showdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=180-951
However, I have heard of DAC users having difficulties with the Dayton branded glass cables, as in Vinnie's second link, because of the round connector fitting loosely into Toslink ports. It's generally a bad idea to put a round plug into a square (sort of) hole.
