Hey, I got my Zhaolu D1.3 and it sounds good, but I have to set all of my sources to output PCM Stereo or else I don't get any output. This isn't ideal because my sources are also hooked up to my 5.1 speakers, and for those I want Dolby Digital or DTS. Is there a DAC that can convert 5.1 digital signals into stereo analog? My receiver does this over the headphone output, but it doesn't sound very good because the amp sucks. Any help would be appreciated

Unfortunately this is often an area covered by consumer gear not the audiophile crowd. Good luck on your search though.

it might be easier to get a digital switchbox. Where say you have your DVD player as source, and then you can switch between the Zhaolu for headphones or your reciever for speakers. As memory serves, I have seen such switchboxes for optical inputs.
