Title: NOS1 DAC with BlueSound Node
Post by: music33 on May 20, 2023, 09:09:27 pm
I have a BlueSound Node and was thinking about using it as a streaming device to the Phasure DAC.  From my understanding using a USB connection isn't going to work because I can't get the Phasure drivers on the BlueSound Node OS.  Even if I could, the OS is not Windows.  The other option is to use a digital coaxial cable.  This should work as no drivers are needed.  Does the Phasure DAC have a digital coaxial input?
Any advice appreciated.  Is this a foolish endeavor.

Thanks, Dave

Hi Dave,

There's an S/PDIF (coax) connection looming in there, but not more than that, so No. :sorry:.
In the very first incarnation S/PDIF was there, as a kind of gadget. Then with the first upgrade I asked everyone (individually) whether they wanted to keep that connection, and 100% said No.

I should not worry too much because everything "streaming" doesn't sound too good. So the DAC might be the same, but it still won't sound good.

Regards,
Peter
