Hi folks. Could I ask for some quick advice?
I have a large collection of Flac audio. Much of it 24bit.
I have a Sony HT-ST7 soundbar: Bluetooth SoundBar (Sound Bar) with Wireless Subwoofer Speaker - HTST7 Review - Sony US
I know it's not the best speaker system - but it is convenient and fits perfectly under my TV in my cabinet.
If I use a mac mini to "serve" the audio - what is the best way to play my flac library on the Sony system?
I would want to video also running through the Sony and to the TV so that I can use the TV as a monitor.
Seems that HDMI would be the easiest.
If I run the video through HDMI and the audio through a DAC, would I actually be hearing DAC audio? Or would the HDMI over ride that? Will a DAC really improve the audio over HDMI? Likewise with optical?
Thanks for your time and help.
