Love my Reactors but it’s time to reduce that latency. So I’m moving my 900s into my office/studio (where they’ll be amazing and the latency isn’t a big issue), and replacing the LJ with a pair of customs.
Next I need a optical > Dante adapter so I can connect to the output of the TV. Something like this:

I’ve already got an analogue adapter for my DJ setup, and I can use the virtual soundcard for VLC etc.
Questions:
1) any other options for the optical > Dante conversion?
2) the end game is a decoder to get 7.1 out of the optical source, to Dante. I’ve not seen anything reasonable for this yet. Some people have decided a surround signal, then connected Dante adapters to the analogue outputs for all of the channels. That seems mad. You should just be able to get one box that received optical or HDMI, and makes all of the channels available as Dante channels. Ideally including the .1 so you can have 7.7!
I’d love any input anyone has.
