The fan noise would stop me, perhaps yours is much quieter.
Sony PS3 Optical Out to a DAC?
Does any one know if the Sony PS3 Optical Out on the rear panel is for an Audio stream. If so, can one purchase a decent quality DAC like the cambridge (sells for $495), use the PS3 as the transport mechanism feed the signal to the DAC and get a significantly better quality CD signal then an equivalent $495 DC player.
