Linux + mplayer +brutefir xovers + spdif out

[MWP]

Anyone else taken an approach similar to this?

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

This is my current setup, which ive been running for over 5yrs now.

My main reason for this complex setup is so i can run the very steep xovers needed from my Seas magnesium coned mid's.
Of course it has many other advantages too

No, not yet, but it looks promising!
(and very flexible)

5years? that's quite a long time in linux ;-)

Oh, and here is what my current xovers look like:

I do something similar on windows but with analogue out on the pc.

What sound card are you using that has 3X spdif out? The only reason i'm not outputing to a set of dacs is the sound cards i've found don't have the spdif connections.

I have been wanting to. Where did you get a card with 3 SPDIFs?

There is a Foobar plugin that is an Xover, but I want to use my own DACs, not the soundcard ones. I was considering a PC w/ 4 sound cards in it. 3 or 4 digital outs on one card would be awesome.

The alternative is to modify a card, bypassing it's DACs. I have very little experience with SMDs.

I see you are using lin-lin representation of the filters. Shouldn't the lines be somewhat curved in that case? Response of the filters is a straight line only in log-log diagrams.

I would like to do the same but only with digital inputs. I do not want to play my music on the PC.

I'm looking for the same thing, SPDIF IN, 3x/4x SPIDF OUT
