Reactor now available in stereo!

[Marcello]

Hi RMK

Yes, I connect just one toslink to one Reactor and both of them are connected with WI-FI along with the app.

I tried to connect the other Reactor with a pair of RCA cables plus a 3.5mm converter, result was not that good. Source can be switched.  It was stereo playback but lack of base and the soundstage was strangely shallow......

Anyone may share your experience of using RCA cable as source please? I wish to connect my Reactors with my turntable.

Hi ken46,

I also found the sound using the analog input a bit shallow and much lower compared to digital sources, but adding an ADC between the RCA source and the Reactor using then toslink connection fixed the issue. First I tried with a cheap (20EUR) ADC with output sample rate at 48khz (good enough) and then a more expensive one at 192khz (35EUR, better sound). Both ADCs fixed the shallow/low sound output in the same way, but 192Khz ADC sounds crisper to me. It could be the increased sample rate or simply the ADC quality, or placebo effect :-)
I also use a turntable using the RCA>ADC>toslink connection and it sounds really good.
