Cyrus Discmaster help needed

[admin_exported]

Hi all.

I've recently purchased a Cyrus Discmaster (I think!). I thought it was a dad7 cd unit by its looks, but when I got it home, i realised it didnt have any 'audio out' outputs. It has the psx-r port, a 3 pin 'Pro Out' port, a Din-style 'comms' port, a 'spdif out' port and a mc-bus port.

My question is this.......

Do i now need to purchase a DAC for this unit in order to get sound from it? If so, does it have to be the matching 'DACmaster' unit?

My plan was to get a Cyrus III amp and just plug in.

I feel like a bit of a plum at this moment and any info or options would be greatly received.

If I need to buy a DAC, then I cant afford the amp

Thanks in advance

The Discmaster is a transport and is supposed to be used with the DACmaster....

You will need either a DAC or an amp that will accept a digital input.

I expect the seperate DAC will be the cheaper option. There are not many standard amps about with digital inputs.

Thanks for your help Messiah.

Probably flog the transport and get an intergrated unit
