Hi dgarratt and welcome to Beoworld

Theoretically you could, but you would have to control the volume outside the app, eg in the 3rd party system.

As far as I am aware the volume of the SPDIF-out (of the Core) is fixed.

The BS Core however has its own DAC built-in - why not use the analog PL-output directly?

P.S. Which ‘3rd party system’ do you intent to connect it to?

Although I don’t use the optical out of my Core, it can be volume regulated.

This is can be set with the app under configuration-sound settings-optical out.

The sampling rate can also be set.

Thanks for the info, liberal.

Would it be possible for you to post a screenshot (one or more) of the configuration settings options.

Not much to gain from the official B&O guide in this matter.

@dgarrett

Seems that you might give it a try then ;-)

Hi Guys, thanks for the replies..sounds like this could/should work.

I'm also glad to read volume control should also be achievable!

Will make the purchase and give it a go. Will report back with my findings once i've had a chance to test.

I would love to know how you get on, and to see any screenshots of the UI too.

I'm using a RoonServer, playing through a Chord DAC to play my Hi-Rez collection - which is distributed via my BS Moment via it's line in. I don't really use the Moment's UI anymore and am thinking the Core could be a much more discrete replacement.

I love the design of the Moment, and have it proudly on display, but like so many things now, relay on the smartphone.

Many thanks in advance & good luck!

Hi,

Here are some screen shots form the configuration settings on the app
