Greetings everyone!
Just ordered a D50 after researching the best I could and finding you guys in the process, big kudos to amirm for all the detailed reviews!
I would be really grateful if someone could chime in and tell me if I made a huge mistake but I wanted a quality DAC to connect my LG OLED C7 as the main audio source to my Rega Brio integrated amp / KEF Q350 speakers.
My plan is to connect the TV to the D50 using AudioQuest Forest TOSLINK followed by AudioQuest Evergreen RCA to the amp.
If I understood everyone correctly, I should pretty much be good to go at that point by selecting the OPT input and using the default filter and no volume changes on the D50 since I'll control the volume with the amp?
I just want quality sound as close to the source material I can get without breaking the bank whether I'm watching multimedia or playing console games, intended to replace the basic RCA-3.5mm cable to connect the TV and the amp.
During researching I looked at Modi Multibit, JDS EL DAC, Hifime UDA38Pro, and then found out about Topping which seems to fit my needs the best.
Any suggestions and comments are welcome since I'm pretty new to the audio game from a technical point
