There is another obscure possibility - the AW100 seems to have a DC
detection circuit connected to those speaker relays. The inputs have DC
blocking capacitors on the schematic, which will prevent any DC from the
source getting through to the amp - which would then keep those relays
open.

Specifically, how do you use the OPPO as a transport sending digital to
the DAC? I assume it is the latest firmware for the OPPO Bluray you
are talking about. Do you have to use a Media Smart server to do this,
through the Network option on the OPPO?

I ran myself sox in command line but without 'rate' effect and without

Actually, if we do upsampling and still sending headless raw, how the

I should perhaps clarify that he reboot restores the touch and enables
the DAC to get a lock: it doesn't fix it in the sense of allowing me to
play the 24/48 file

Does it happen on an unmodified Touch? If not, I think you know what the
problem is.

I made shorting plugs and tried this way. Shorting plugs to the '-', and
signal to the '+'. And all of the sudden, it works fine! Tried several
times - the amp starts fine and plays music directly from the SB3.
There must be some difference between XLR pins and RCA inputs. On the
picture there
I forgot. Thank you for all the answers! I think I wouldn't even figure
out the amp has RCA inputs, I was so sure it has balanced only :)

The next thing you need to do is to put some attenuation between the SB
and your amp. You need to keep the SB volume above 75 at ALL TIMES.
Adjust between 75-100 for normal listening. Usually something like
15-20dB of attenuation will be fine. Get some Rothwells or make your
own.
