Rather enjoying this old doorstop for a while now. Dead as Moses display, not a problem.. there’s the app. Streaming board non-functional , again.. no issue. The power switch was failing, a $50 fix locally.
I can confirm the optical input works fine fed by the 27” iMac for watching films. The analogue also steps up using an iPhone 6S as a Qobuz streamer.
As expected, the amp provides the necessary PRaT to feed Castle Compact Columns…well-pleased for an initial $200 expenditure.. funded by the sale of a Muso Gen 1.
