Hi,
My new beresford dac arrived today and i am excited to see what it can do. I have a soundblaster xfi xtreme music with 3.5mm "flexijack" out. Digital I/O is selected in the soundblaster settings, and a 3.5mm to toslink adaptor connects to a toslink then to the dac, then a phono to phono goes to my amp.
But there is no output from the pc.
I tested it from a dvd player via the toslink and it works fine, sounded great, so the dac definitely works.
My 3.5mm to toslink adaptor feels very loose, could the adaptor be faulty? Is there anyway i can test if my pc is outputting a digital signal?
Any suggestions very welcome!!
Simon
