I love the concept, but for my case, I'd need more granular filters. In particular, I only buy TVs that have analog audio outputs so I can hook them up to any speakers. That's a minority of TVs these days, but there are still a few around. Finding the good ones would be useful to me.
- no_wizard 4y agoI assume that converters have negative side effects?
- recursive 4y agoI'm unaware of their existence. I'm guessing they're big and expensive. Or maybe hard to get?
- fshr 4y agoWhat kind of outputs? Fiber to analog is about $15 and the size of two hockey pucks stacked.
- recursive 4y agoHuh. Ok. I just didn't know that was a thing. Ok, I guess I don't need analog outputs then. Still nice to have though. Better zero pucks than two.
- pas 4y agoHifi geeks don't trust the DAC to something inside the TV, and ... they are not wrong. Plus you can reuse the DAC even if you change the screen.
- recursive 4y agoI'm not an audiophile. I just want something better than what the screen does, and I don't want to buy a soundbar or get into HDMI. And sometimes use headphones. But still, I'm pretty sure, one day I'm going to get one of these optical -> analog boxes.
