I'm not sure if you're askking about the amplitude of the _s/pdif signal_, or the amplitude of the _audio information_ which is digitally encoded therein. Are you clear on the difference? What are the symptoms - is the audio quiet, or is there no audio at all?
The electrical amplitude of the s/pdif signal is 500 mV. If your DAC requires more then it is out of spec. Did you read somewhere that it requires a "strong" signal? Because that doesn't make sense... If it's not working it could be any number of things - most likely cabling/connectors, or an incorrect receiver circuit in the DAC creating an impedance mismatch. If you're talking about the amplitude of the audio signal, then it is digitally equal to what a CD player would output (when volume controls are at maximum), which is to say -0dB. It's not really a meaningful question. -- seanadams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ seanadams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38024 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
