I want to use again my Graham Slee Novo headphone amp even though I have the DacMagic Plus (which has a headphone socket). My pc soundcard passes a digital signal to the DMPlus as does a Cambridge Audio CD player. What I would like to do is use the Digital-Out of the DMPlus into the Digital- In on the DM (not Plus) and then take a Phono unbalanced out of the DM and into the Novo. The circuit would look like this:
The DMPlus manual says that the digital out is just the incoming digital dignal untreated, so in my suggested set up it would be the DM (not Plus) that would be converting the signal and sending the resulting analogue signal on to the Novo headphone amp. Cambridge Audio have said that this will not work - and they should know. But before I try it I just wondered if anyone here could explain to me why it would not work.
Thanks.
