I've been contemplating building a switchbox for quie some time now. I basically want to get everything running through my amp and since my amps only have 1 RCA in, I'd need a switchbox to handle multiple sources. So I've been looking at some parts and stuff and basically planned out what I'm going to buy. But a part of me is telling me not to build it as it'll compromise sound quality. Basically, my plan is this.
RCA Set 1
Computer -> USB -> DAC
CDP -> Coaxial -> DAC
DAC -> ...
RCA Set 2
CDP -> ...
RCA Set 3
Cable TV Box -> ...
So a 3 in 1 out switchbox would solve that problem.
DAC, CDP, Cable -> Switchbox -> Amp
Wouldn't the switchbox defeat the purpose of boutique cables? That's my main question.
I'm not sure how to handle this situation, but a switchbox would be most convenient.
