Thank you for your replies.
Ogs, one thing though that scares me : leveling the passthru. Isn't that dangerous for the speakers ? Isn't it the goal of the passthru, to just pass the signal trough without interfering, leveling, etc. ?
Gerronwithit, i perfectly see the actual struggle ! It's weird though that you need to power them up in certain order to make it work ? Obviously since there is no hdmi there is non CEC which i have on the Marantz obviously. Isn't there a configurable trigger to fire the devialet on ?
Another generic question guys, is the pro version bringing so many features that i should chose it over the non pro ?
I believe i need the pro version for playing Spotify (most my main source of audio, beside CDs)?
I Have Spotify connect on my Marantz and the signal could be sent to the Expert, wouldn't this bypass any DAC improvement from the Expert ?
Thanks
