I have an Esoteric K 03 that I leave on 24/7 except when I’m away for an extended period of time. I’ve done this since 2012 with no issues. I’ve been told this is fine as long as the tray is empty because the reader will constantly try to read the disk. How true this is I’m not certain. Now that I say this I’ll have an issue with my luck.
Any harm to leaving my SACD player on all the time to toslink input?
I have an Esoteric K-05 SACD / DAC. I run my XBox One S's optical out to the optical input on the Esoteric and just leave the player on all the time; so I don't need to turn it back on and select the optical input via the mode switch. I know...I'm lazy, but I have kids and I'm trying to make thing easy for them too.
Is it okay to leave this thing on all the time? With the rest of the system off, the Esoteric's screen blinks constantly with 'Opt' on the display screen. I guess it is searching for a signal. Will this mess up or burn in the LED display?
I am considering getting a cheap (relative) little DAC just for the XBox as an alternative. Considering things like Cambridge DacMagic 100. Ideas?
Thanks,
Jason
