Post low Sound when connect using optical to Digital Amplifier.
Hi

i just bought a ACryan HD player Essential, and i am happy with the new player, it just that when i tried to use optical cable from HD player to the amplifier with 7 channel, it produced very low sound, i have set volume to max, but i still dont get better sound it supposed to be.

i tried all movie files, it doenst give any different, but when i tried using my DVD player with such volume, it could crack ear.

in the audio setting, SPDIF, there are 2 options LPCM and RAW, i tried to change one another, its still the same.

what should i do? is my player broken? or i need to update the firmware?

thanks

Increase the volume of the player itself with the remote control (buttons 5 and 7, see the manual). By default it is very low.

The optical cable does not provide sufficient bandwidth for 5.1 or 7.1 audio. Maybe that is your problem. See http://www.acryan.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=173&t=17237

then is there anyway to make the HD player works normally with the amplifier?

Connect them with an HDMI cable as follows:

Playon <- HDMI -> Amplifier/Receiver <- HDMI -> TV
