Very good information indeed concerning a HDMI to RCA converter. Many modern have RCA inputs but very rarely rca outputs. We have a 7.1 receiver for films etc but for more everyday use we have a older RCA centric Sony 5.1 receiver. Using such a convertor to tap a Audio feed from the TV via a hdmi socket is a much better option than from a 3.5mm headphone output.
Great info Roger. I have a remote power switch hooked up to my Marantz 2220b. I also have a Wiim streamer connected to a Schiit DAC connected to the Aux in. I have a headphone amp in the tape monitor loop with remote volume control. All of a sudden my 50 year old receiver has all the conveniences I need.
Thanks for posting That's a great system you have, I'm a big fan of Schiit audio products and their DACs are a good sonic match for old Marantz receivers. I bet you have some nice speakers too!!
Ah yes, I agree! ..... I should have mentiontioned the do not disturb feature on the phone, and I also want to use the phone to select the next album without stirring from the couch!
I own a vintage stereo equipment and that's a reason for that. I want this equipment to be original vintage. Otherwise I would have bought something modern, but I don't like the modern trash.
