FLAC to CD player internal DAC - Page 2

Probably a moot point for the OT. This thread is over a year old. Doesn't look like he came back to visit it.

FWIW, the DCX2496 has its digital signal pass thru a relay. I don't know what harm it does to it, never measured it.

Most likely none. If a relay is good enough for serial digital video, it'll probably do for digital audio.

well video is mostly buffered, there will be some effect, but probably negligible, many MUXes use relays and i've never had any issues with relays and spdif or even i2s. can always add a line driver after the relay if you are concerned
