RSP 1098 digital/analog Bypass?

[Whoracle]

Hi, Ive bought an Integrated tube amp for that warm smooth sound for music purposes, It has only analog inputs and Im streaming music from my HTPC witch has only digital coax output/spdif..
Is It possible to use the D/A converter in the RSP1098 to input the digital signal and output analog? I dont think so, I was supposed to buy a expensive soundcard with D/A and analog outputs, but tought I would try the RSP 1098 first before spending the big bucks
Anyone got ideas?

I have the 1098..I think you can use the D/A converter in the 1098 to input digital signal and output analog!! Output Analog for sure!!!!

but how? In the menu: witch input to choose? Ive tried coaxial and analog, I get no sound from my tube still.. witch signal output would work? You have the zone2 and tape, Is there more? tried both of them

The zone2 and tape output only work with analog sources.
You need to use the standard Left and Right output.
I assume you use different power amplifier and speakers for HT. In that case you need a power amplifier which has a throughput for the signal or you need to split the signal

For movies I use the RMB 1075, and for Music the Integrated tube amp, Im not sure what you mean by splitting the signal tough, Do you mean splitting the front channel pre out?

Yes I got sound now! thanks people!! but its not very ideal to have the signal go trough the volum control of the RSP1098 and the Tube amp at the same time?
But its no other way I guess.. I will have to change the cables everytime i listen to music/ film, better that then loosing quality in a splitt.. More tips would be awesome!
