Custom Reactor and Dante

[quartz78]

Hi All, have you noticed that the connectivity specs for Reactor Custom say

https://www.devialet.com/en-us/product-p...country=US

Network: Ethernet, Dante support
Inputs: Euroblock connector, configurable in
- AES/EBU 110 Ohms balanced digital input <<<<<
- balanced analog mono input

And on the photo No. 3 you can even see the Euroblock connector which looks nothing like my regular Reactor analog/optical input. According to the description, it should be compatible with regular XLR cables even though it does not look like a regular XLR outlet, either (I guess full size XLR did not fit at the back panel).

So I'm thinking getting a 5-channel output of the amp in AES/EBU may be easier than 5-channel optical output (does it even exist?), and you can bypass Dante altogether. Back to good old cables - no latency here! This being said, I am not sure how one would control the volume in such a setup...

That should work.  I found this connector that may work with the Euroblock connector on the reactor... https://hosatech.com/products/analog-aud...100f-bulk/

Let us know how it works out for you.

Thanks. I don't actually have Reactor Customs, but regular ones. I hope it will help out someone else!
