I currently use two Golds with optical connection only (CD player and record deck). I frequently use one Gold only when we stay in a second home with a Macbook Pro and lossless files. In this situation, until now, I used the wifi mode through Sparks. In order to improve this one Gold configuration I’ve decided to switch to a cable-connected one. I’ve bought a DAC « Cambrige Audio Dacmagic Plus » that I want to connect between the Macbook Pro and the Phantom.
I’ve done the Mac/DAC/Phantom connexion as indicated in the Cambridge manual but I got no sound !
The digital audio input connection is correct since the Mac actually sees the DAC after I’ve switched to it in the System Preferences / Audio Output Device option. But I’m quite confused with the DAC/Phantom digital audio output connection option I used because it is apparently (but not so clear told in the manual) indicated for recording only. The second option would be using the RCA/phono output with a toslink adaptator to connect the Gold. But before falling back to this option I wonder if somebody can help with the optical output option issue.
