At the moment all of my audio is being routed through a DVDO Edge hub/scaler which can output audio through either hdmi or optical. The optical out sends either dolby digital 5.1, dts 5.1, standard stereo, or lcpm stereo. What I'm unclear on is whether a dac will handle the dolby digital or dts signals without issue, given a decoder is necessary for an av receiver. Since the dac is converting the digital signal to analog is this a non-issue?
And if so, what would be the best dac for around $100-$350. My cans are Audio Technica A700, Beyer Dynamic DT-770-80, and AKG K702.
