I am 90% watching movies over Direct TV. All 5.1 DD from a Genie receiver that has analog (RCA) stereo out and also has Optical out. It does have an HDMI that is going to the TV.
Question: Would it be better for me to use the stereo out of the Genie to feed my Musical Fidelity X-Can v2 headphone amp and then out to my Grado RS-1's? *or* Use the Coax Digital output to something like a Schiit Bifrost, which I think takes a coax digital in and then to the RCA analogue inputs on the MF X-Can 2 to the Grado's? I want to keep this project under $500..preferable $100-300
Thoughts?
