Halo C1 question

[earwit]

I'm wondering how the C1 handles a analog rt/lt signal from a
CDplayer, does the C1 give you the option of going thru their D/A converter.
What I/m getting at is some Processors now have high quality convertors so
you get use you dvd/cd player more as a transport.

Yes, you can use the C1/C2/7100 for their decoding capability, which they do very, very well, by sending a digital signal from the player to the processor. The DAC's aren't the very best and latest out there in the market, (we're hoping we get an upgrade in the near future!) but you'll get quite a great sound.

That's what I do for critical listening with my C1.

Yes, it will work great for regular CDs and DVDs. However, if you're going to use SACD or DVDA you'll need to use the DACs in the player/transport.
