Good morning @Sirpopealot,
Your plan is interesting and when I got my 520 in April, I also thought about the connection. I also have the latest generation Apple TV streaming box with a LAN connection.
But what do you do if you want to watch normal TV (just the TV speakers) without an amplifier? For example at night when everyone is asleep?
Maybe I didn’t think further about Apple TV when I installed the 520 in April and have connected the normal HDMI of the Rose520 to TV HDMI and a fiber optic cable from my LG OLED TV to the Rose. That way, if I ever use it, I can also output the sound via the 520.
PS:
My Apple TV streaming box is currently connected to my eACR-HDMI (1x on the LG-OLED) of the TV and the Rose520 is connected to HDMI TV via its HDMI output, as I said, then the Toslink from the TV is connected to the Toslink input on Rose.
Well, you’ll all probably have home cinema systems…I don’t.
Your project is interesting and I’ll keep following it here.
Regards, Bonte
