I am looking to take my audio out from my phone via USB-C to either SPDIF/TOSLINK or Coax that will be connected to my Helix DSP in my car system. I want to keep it at as digital as possible, so would something like this work?
Douk Audio U2 XMOS XU208 Digital Interface, USB to TOSLINK Coaxial/Optical Audio Adapter, for DAC/Preamp/Amplifier, Support PCM & DSD64 (Upgrade Version) https://a.co/d/fXxRxQn
Some recommend a DAC Like the Topping D10, but I don't understand why you'd want to go digital to analog, then back to digital, not to mention that's a bulky device to have in the car.
Thanks

Did that include the sub? That's really a good price.
He upped the price, but is now including the sub, still a great deal.

I'd don't see why that amp couldn't handle those speakers, unless there is something wrong with it. I know there was a series of those amps that had a relay issue. I'd reach out to Parasound and see what they say.

Welcome back Carl, sorry for loss. Nice looking room and hope to see you around more. If I remember correctly, you had the blacksmith shop, wood shop, and metal shop all in one?
Glad to see you around.

Do any of you guys still visit friends and listen to music? Since my friend Keith died I doubt if I ever will again. Please excuse my droning on. Good evening.
No worries, and yes, music is a big reason why we get together. I have a few friends and luckily I get to enjoy different genre's of music with them. They all enjoy a good sound system, but that's not as important as just getting together and jamming tunes. Playing in band, going to see bands, all of it.

Snoop claims he smokes 80 times a day!
80 joints a day, he has a professional blunt roller. I'm sure it's taken a toll on his lungs.

Wow, they really stepped up their Klipsch game. Not one, but two pair of new Jubs, not to mention thier jub clones. Very nice, thanks for sharing.
Question, what did they do with the other 3 pairs of UG Jubilees?

I have to say the total lack of interest in this has surprised me. Has the Klipsch crowd lost its way?
I tried sweet talking the wife, but it was a no go. I still kick myself for selling my 222c that I purchased from you.
Definitely a great deal for someone.

Was this the show where there was some controversy with the general admission crowd and the line to get in? Some pushing and shoving ensued.
Not sure on the show you're thinking, but I was at Slipknot show around the time they started regulating general admission floor seats and a small riot broke out and the police were called in. As Nickyboy had mentioned, I don't recall any issues at this one.

I went to see Metallica this past weekend. Kirk Hammett plays that Les Paul “Greeny”. It sounds fantastic. Actually, all their guitars sound great. I am amazed how good they sound live. They didn’t have a single monitor on stage.
Looks like we were at the same show, I believe Cory Harrison was as well.

An earlier post in this thread..I'm getting close to pulling the trigger on 1 or 2 of these.
Nice, you'll have to let us know what you think.

For me it's not about price (i dont think that if i even had the cash, id drop that much coin on a guitar), it's like I see one then I become obsessed with it.

are you talking to me? If so I like that they can be balanced input, bridgeable output, built like a tank, serviceable, 1U rack space, no fan and sound decent especially when modded.
Yeah, I forgot to quote you. The Parasounds have no fan and are bridgeable, but not balanced. I don't know if there is any need to modify them. But they do take up 2 rack spaces. They have a couple bigger brothers as well.

The replica

I dont understand my obsession with this guitar, the first picture maybe the real deal, the second is a replica. I will say after my trip to Nashville a couple weeks ago, it dawned on me how I seem to be more drawn to Gibson

What is it specifically about the Crowns do you like? I've ran the D45s and thought they sounded great. I chalked this up to their Class AB technology. That's what I was looking for when stumbling upon the Parasound HCA-750A and alike, the 12 volt trigger is a plus amd no fan. Downside is that they are 2U rack mount and no XLR input.

Though a Heresy would work, I'd at least go for a Cornwall, if possible, a Belle as it is not as deep and you get horn loaded bass to match your Khorn.
But yes, in the end, a Heresy will work.

Now asking $180.00 each, still not a bad deal.

your crossovers need to be serviced by the klipsch authorised tech @Deang
Why? Why can't one attempt the repair themselves?
USB-C to SPDIF keeping it digital

Its a 2014, even my 2021 doesn't have HDMI. Guess I am behind the times.
