[QUOTE="DavidC, post: 1145686, member: 21431"] So my humble set up is taking shape. Onkyo TX NR 646 Onkyo DVD player ( not used much) 2022 Mac Mini connected via HDMI to amp and TV as main source of audio and video at the moment. Dynaudio Audience 70 front B&W HTM61 center Mission Floor standers at the rear Wharfdale MX10 subwoofer. My main listening is done via the Mac using Radio Garden or YouTube and streaming or downloaded movies or series. My question is this, would a stand alone DAC fed from the Lightning bolt port be a worthwhile upgrade for music use. How do I select between HDMI input to amp and DAC input? Is the Onkyo onboard DAC being fed from the HDMI signal not good enough for what I need and am I overthinking it? [/QUOTE]
