Hi all,
I am interested in an amplifier to run my Senns from. The audio is lossless and comes from a Firewire800 external drive. I am not (at the moment) interested in a DAC. But I would like to connect an amp, either a Little Dot, or Schitt, to my Macbook Pro.
The question I have is: what is the optimal way to connect it to the Mac? I have a headphone out which acts as a line out as far as I know. Is that the only way to connect it via 3.5mm? I have read about a "red light" inside the jack which means it is in a certain mode and can be changed in the Mac settings. Is this something I have to do? Basically the more I read the more confused I become. So I came here
Thank you for your help!
