#243685 - 09/12/2004 15:34 Info on digital boards?
Ladmo addict Registered: 04/09/2004 Posts: 527 Loc: Oklahoma	I was wondering what advantage the digital output boards give the user? I see posts on these pop up on the board, and have seen them for sell from Eutronix, but if someone could explain it (and use small words, as I AM a conservative!) I would very thankful! thanks Ladmo _________________________ The only easy day...was yesterday!

There is no more ground loop comming out from your speaker. But you still need the RCA cable for the tuner. This does not work over the optical connector. You will find the Tohuwabohu in the attachment. bye Attachments 243043-IMG_1646.JPG (172 downloads)
