Really loved this forum and proud to join. I just received my Surround Master V.3 (S.M.) and tried to use it my Technics Sl-D3 turntable connected to a Puffin pre-am DSP (by Parks Audio) feeding directly into the S.M. Unfortunately, the Puffin is a DSP so the S.M. did not like the signal. I also tried to use the S.M. with my Panasonic BDT110 Blu-ray/cd player using the optical input to the S.M. Again, no sound. Does anyone on the forum have any suggestions? I have ordered a pre-amp to replace the Puffin, but I can't understand why the optical input from the Blu-ray player won't work. I contacted David at Involve Audio and he said, "You can connect an optical disc player to the Surround Master via Optical/Toslink/ S/PDIF connection if you wish, as long as your player can be set to output PCM only (the SM doesn't decode digital formats natively, such as Dolby Digital/DTS etc) - and the maximum input resolution is 96KHZ 24 bit." I set the output to PCM but still no sound out any channel. Help please!!!
