This is so interesting, but seems so prohibitively and unnecessarily expensive and inaccessible.
Why can’t I just buy the Reactor Custom directly? How much are they?
Why can’t I buy the Dante dongle directly?
Is there a device that takes an HDMI input and then outputs the discrete channels over dante? And is there a way to send the .1 sub channel to the regular outs so the bass isn’t missing?
I’d like to play around with Dante. Can anyone recommend a straight forward twin channel balanced analogue Dante output device?

And it turns out they can. Dante AV. Man, I need to catch up with this stuff.

For the moment I’m just trying to get anything working to understand it better.
As I understood it, I need a source - which can be a virtual sound card on a computer. Then I need an output to connect it to, like these AVIO things, and then I can connect it to my analogue speakers? I also need PoE injectors to power them.
For just getting eg a stereo output out of my Mac this should work fine. Right? What am I missing? I don’t need to decode AC3 yet.
