I am as well still struggling to find out how to best connect a turntable into my phantoms/dialog.
I am testing the ADL Stratos from Furutech but realized the optical out is only available when there is a digital in signal. Some posts are mentioning a computer could be used to trick the ADL and then still have the optical out functioning when connecting a phono. Could anyone describe how they succeeded with this method in more details?
Then we have the NuWave Phono Convertor. https://www.psaudio.com/products/nuwave-...converter/
No Toslink opticcal out but I suppose a coaxial SPDIF to Toslink converter (https://www.amazon.com/Coaxial-Toslink-D...B0788GBJHD) could work. I suppose there is no loss in quality because it is a simple media converter (digital to digital). Could anyone please confirm this?
Finally I was looking at beis.de kits and found out that Uwe has recently partnered with a few other HiFi enthusiasts to produce a nice box based on his AD24QS kits.

This could probably do the trick. It even has a headphone amp. Has anyone tried it out?
Thanks a lot for the feedback I could already read on this forum. Very interesting.
