In Reply to: RE: Here's why one might want analog out. I do.... posted by AbeCollins on August 03, 2014 at 11:16:45
so, the soundbar has a DAC? Did not know any speaker did. I have never used a soundbar. I thought that was what people used when they did not have room for a center speaker below the TV? I have a question then...do you connect the soundbar to the center channel output on the receiver? I use a pinnacle center speaker and it sounds pretty good to me.

A soundbar is often used instead of a full-blown AV surround sound system. They typically come with digital inputs and analog inputs and through digital signal processing (DSP) they attempt to synthesize a surround effect.
In my case I do not have a surround sound receiver and all the associated speakers. I can simply drive the soundbar via a digital input or stereo analog input. Yes, it has it's own built-in DAC and amplifier.
I simply drive the sound bar via the 2-channel analog output from my TV in order to get a more robust sound vs the TV's tiny speakers. And I disable the DSP surround effects which sound annoying, 'phasey', and artificial.
You wouldn't use one of these soundbars if you have a full-blown surround AV setup. Instead, you would use a passive center channel speaker along with your AV receiver and associated speakers for all the other channels.
