Headphone or portable speaker upgrade - *all working now*

Cable looks good, no kinks. Passing light, but it is old maybe 8/10years.
Not sure of spec ever changed and it's not suitable
 
I can borrow the kids bluray player tomorrow and try that with the DAC
New cable tomorrow to try as well.
Can try coax out the bluray player to DAC as well
 
Optical on sky box does nothing, but could be cable still because the signal indicator doesn't come on with optical plugged in.
So tried COAX out of sky box and it makes a noise, just its an awful noise! a clicking/clacking noise. But the signal indicator does come on.

Guess this DAC is dead. Not bad for brand new out the box!
 
New optical cable works. Lots more red light coming out the end.
Perhaps my sky box is giving out a bad COAX signal, which is why it was giving out that awful noise.
Or the COAX side of amp is bad.
The coax cable is good as I use it on something else

Not sure, but optical works and these DALI's are quite loud for my bedroom! Sweet!
 
TBH I didn't bother with any more investigating around the COAX. Just happy its working at the moment :D

My sky box is pretty old, so could have been outputting that crackling noise for the amp.
