Bear Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Can anyone recommend a good converter from optical to RCA digital? I know odd but I have some older equipment that only has RCA input that I am trying to pair with newer that only has optical output. Any advise greatly appreciated! Cheers! Link to comment

Jud Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Reasonable unit for around $60-$70. In fact I have two, one of which I may no longer need, so if interested in a used one, PM me. Or if you'd prefer a new one, I got mine at Guitar Center, and I imagine there are several other places where they're available.

sandyk Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 If there are any Aussies reading this that know which end of a soldering iron is which,and have a similar requirement, or perhaps need RCA to Toslink instead. then check out the link below.

All that Identical Checksums gives is the possibility of REGENERATING the file to close to that of the original file. PROFILE UPDATED 13-11-2020 Link to comment
Bear Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 Thanks again guys! I did a little more surfing when I realized that ideally I wanted to hook up four different sources with optical and RCA connectors to one digital input (old Bose) and found this handy solution on e-bay. Could come in handy if you want to expand input possibilities for your DAC as well. Link to comment
