How do I use SPDIF?

[Bailua]

G'day all

I just bought the A8V Deluxe and can't figure out how to get the SPDIF to
work. I'm guessing you can't just plug it into a stereo through normal RCA
cables, because I tried that and it didn't work.

Any help is much appreciated
Cheers

I assume there's a coaxial S/PDIF output on the board? That would have
to be connected to the corresponding digital input on the amp via a
good-quality RCA cable (the kind of stuff suited for video should do).

Run the sound setup wizard after you plug it into the stereo..
To return to regular stereo, run the wizard again after connecting..
