Was thinking of picking up a Sony 7pin/optical cable to feed my JB3..either out of a SBM1 (which I don't have, but may pick one up) or out of my M1 (when going analog in on the M1). If I am going analog in on the M1, will it output digital via the 7pin/optical cable...or is it going to get confused about the input.
I've heard that as long as you initially pick up the signal via the analog in, then plug in the 7 pin, it won't get confused. This was tried on a D8 a while back (not by me) and the D8 did indeed get confused and looked for the digi in as soon as the 7 pin was plugged in.
I don't mind the A/D stage on the M1, would like to bypass the A/D on the JB3 though...would this work?
