the Dcx also has a digital input. Oh it has 24bit adc for analog signals ,but some the tricks it performs is only feasible in the digital domain ? and if one looks at the total performance, passive fillters still sucks AND analog active fillters are not free from artifacts either, once in the digital domain fillters and eq can be done without the penalty that always comes with yet another box off analog circuits ? I have not read its manual maybe it does things that are completely impossible in the analog domain too ?
I think it would work just fine, one has ofcourse to be carefull with the levels when using the analog input, to get the best performance. Btw the Squeezebox has 24 bit digital outputs if I used a dcx I would use that and keep the squeezebox volume at 100% as it's volume controll is digital. the analog sources one owns is usually less critical . if one has several digital sources you need some way to switch between them, but I bet there exist some magic box for that to. Phil has experience with this kind of equipment, so he is one of the forum members that can answer this kind of questions , there some presenence of audio profesionals on this forum. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
