Hi. Sorry, but I can't find the instruction manual. Anyway, a question about hooking up another DAC to the PT-100. When connected, will the DAC override the internet DAC in the pt-100? Or, is there some way to bypass the internal DAC to use the external one?

Or, is there some way to bypass the internal DAC to use the external one? You simply connect the digital output of your source to a digital input of the DAC then connect the analog output of the DAC to an analog input of the PT-100. Then select that input on the PT-100 to play. What DAC are you thinking about? |

I don't think it would be good for two DACs to be running simultaneously, but I'm very ignorant about them. |

I don't think it would be good for two DACs to be running simultaneously, but I'm very ignorant about them. It's basically bypassed if you're not using a digital input because you'd have to select an analog input on the PT-100 to play from the external DAC . To the PT100 an external DAC is just another analog source like a CD or tape player. Digital goes into the external DAC and analog comes out. The PT-100 has no clue the analog signal is coming from a DAC and it wouldn't matter anyway. It's not unlike connecting a CD player with analog outputs. That CD player is in effect an external DAC that you'd be connecting to the PT-100. |
