Digital Power Link - What is it and what to do?

2 replies
Hello Beoworlders, In a few weeks, BL50 will be delivered and I'm thinking about the best way to connect them to a Core that I already own. I would like to have a direct digital path between the NAS hosting music files and the speakers, in order to avoid multiple DA/AD conversions and let the 50s do the job. Looking at the specs, I noticed that Core has a DPL plug and that 2 DPL plugs are present on the Master BL50. Could I use them to connect Core to the 50s (they would be connected to a Theatre through regular Power Link) ? On another point, I noticed that Core is limited to 24 bits/95 Khz on it's optical output. Is it the same for DPL ? Thanks for your help, Yann.

  The DPL port does nothing - is for ‘future use’. When or if this ‘future use’ will be available, is not known Please also have a look
