DAC/Cable box connection


When I connect my Comcast cable box to my DAC via coaxial cable all I get is "Tic-tic-tic." Both the DAC and the cable box work fine in other configurations. What's up?

Is your cable box set to "PCM" or "stereo"? If your cable box is sending a Dolby Digital signal, then it will cause the DAC to make strange noises.
Ballan,

Unfortunately, my box is a Magnavox with built-in Dolby which I can't defeat; Look like I'll have to go swap it out if I can. Thanks again for your advice. I'll keep you posted.

Cheers,
Jon
