Hi folks. I’ve just set up a brand new Denon PMA600NE integrated amp. This has Bluetooth and digital inputs, and I noticed in the manual that for the digital inputs it states: “Do not input non-PCM signals, such as Dolby Digital, DTS and AAC. This causes noise and could damage the speakers.”
Now I don’t currently have any digital inputs, but I have tried Bluetooth, sending from iTunes on my Mac to the amplifier.
Now I thought AAC was a fairly standard music file format, similar to MP3, and I can’t see how it would cause issues. I have ripped some of my CDs into iTunes using AAC format.
Can anyone say why it might cause issues and damage speakers, and would this be purely via the digital inputs or would it mean Bluetooth as well?
The only issue I had, that a couple of tracks when streamed via Bluetooth caused an horrendous screeching noise for a few seconds, I mean really loud and nasty sound like fingers down a blackboard, and this was an .m4a file which I believe is Apple AAC.
I haven’t connected anything digitally yet (I dont have any digital devices) as my CD, turntable and tape deck are all analogue via RCA.
any advice is appreciated!
thanks
