To an A/V amp you are best advised to use a Touch and it's digital output. The 3,5mm analog out is mainly for headphones sq is not fantastic. Modest priced A/V amps do not have any true analog passthru so the analog inputs will be digitized again . The radio is a standalone piece with headphone out, it works fine for it's intended purpose, it has no digital out. It will be some hassle volume controll is always active on the 3,5 and you will forget to turn it down when disconnecting the 3,5 mm (you want full volume if used as a source ) -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
