  1. So... I understand I have no way to connect by USB.<br /> <br /> I will look at the Power Supplies available. Thanks for the ideas.<br /> <br /> Given that in the rDac review Chris was not impressed with the Optical Input is it worth buying one of the boxes that converts an Optical cable to a Coaxial cable? <br /> <br /> If that would work can any of you tell me whether my preferred option of connecting the Plasma TV by Optical to the rDac Coax /or/Optical is as good for Apple TV music quality, as having 2 cables going to the rDac; 1 from the Apple Tv and 1 from the TV.<br /> <br /> I know the others using the system would find it much easier to only have to select TV on the Arcam regardless of whether watching TV or the Apple TV.<br /> <br /> I am new to this, but I am guessing that I want the least jitter and clock miss-timing (if that is the correct term) and I don't know if a TV is much worse than an Apple TV.<br /> <br /> Out of interest does the fact that an Apple TV or any streamer is connected by an ethernet cable to a switch, then a router and then to the computer completely remove it from the problems associated with the noisy (if that is the right term) computer environment?<br /> <br /> Thanks Again, David
  2. Hi Chris,<br /> <br /> I found your great site after watching your interview on Twit.tv a couple of weeks ago which I enjoyed.<br /> <br /> I was wondering if you or one of your readers could point me in the right direction with regards to connecting an Apple TV2 to an Arcam rDac.<br /> <br /> I was reading your rDac review where you say the optical S/PDIF Toslink input on the rDac isn't a patch on the USB or coaxial S/PDIF input.<br /> <br /> My Apple TV2 outputs via S/PDIF Toslink as does the Panasonic Plasma it connects to via HDMI. Is it is possible to use some sort of conversion so that I could take advantage of the USB input on the rDac?<br /> <br /> I am using an Arcam Solo Mini with Arcam Muso speakers. I have converted hundreds of CD's to Apple Lossless over the past few months and I really like the Apple TV interface, but I would like to get the sound back to the same quality as playing the CD's in the Arcam.<br /> <br /> Looking forward to any advice you can offer. David
