Marantz M-CR603 and external DAC

[Rick Yarussi]

I'm building my first CA system and need some advice. Pieces I have to work with:

 

Marantz M-CR603

Arcam rDAC

iPad

 

I assume I'm going to need a NAS, like a Synology.

 

I'd like to use the rDAC rather than the DAC built into the Marantz but I don't see how to make it work. Sure I could feed the rDAC into the aux input of the Marantz, but then I can't use the Airplay or DLNA?

 

Suggestions?

 

Thanks!

You can't use the internal renderer of something like the Marantz M-CR603.

 

You would need to have something to feed digital to the Arcam rDAC which then feeds analogue to the Marantz. Some form of computer or renderer would be needed.
