Connect to Marantz nr1606

[zixtro]

Hello, 

Is it possible somehow to connect Phantom I 108dB to Marantz nr1606 system? Only opt connector on marantz is labeled as Input.

Not certain. There is an ethernet connection on the Marantz you might try connecting that to your router or one of the speakers. I believe there are ethernet to optical converters as well. Maybe someone more knowledgeable will chime in.

HI, after looking at this https://www.marantz.com/en-us/product/av...ers/nr1606 and the back panel connections.

makes me wonder - whats Zone Audio Output: Speaker / Preout ?
If the Zone Audio Output specifically ZONE 2 what ever that is but if its a full stereo pair signal then that ZONE 2 'Preout' could be used as an Input to the ARCH.

Or if zone2 is no good - mybe an HDMI audio extractor and use the HDMI ouput into a device that gives you a SPDIF output to feed an optical input on a speaker, dialog , or arch.

Hi There!
I did what you described a few years ago... here's a thread that documented my process.
