Re: head unit with digital output
I think alpine made some stuff with toslink at one point. The older clarion stuff that used their proprietary optical connectors is still spdiff data and I have converted some of their old processors to toslink connectors. They did have a 1 din DVD player with digital output, but I do not know if there was ever a monitor HU by clarion...

Re: head unit with digital output
alpine has a few but I thought he was asking if we had any for sale, not specific models? If you just want models, whats your budget?
what else can I say I am a grumpy asshole most of the time.
Re: head unit with digital output
Seems like the head unit manufacturers have up on digital outputs. Not enough interest?
Not a big Alpine guy, but I looked.. Thanks.

Re: head unit with digital output
I found this unit. but, although the diagram looks like a toslink it doesn't specify. I guess i need to call them directly.

Re: head unit with digital output
it does have digital out....digital out is making a slow come back now as there is a large movement for HU w digital out due to all the dsp's accepting it.

Re: head unit with digital output
alpine also had a changer with optical out and AI-net controlled so you could always add that to any double din

Re: head unit with digital output
Yah, I saw it had optical out just Not sure of the termination. The bitone I want to interface it with had a toslink termination. They don't specify, probably cause they want you to buy there whole system.knightrider358 wrote:it does have digital out....digital out is making a slow come back now as there is a large movement for HU w digital out due to all the dsp's accepting it.

Re: head unit with digital output
Historically the Clarion digital interface was not toslink. I cannot recall for certain what they called it, but it was proprietary. I have several DVC-920's and a DVS9755z and they all use the proprietary clarion optical connector. It is fairly easy to convert the older stuff to toslink, I may even have a thread on here somewhere about one of my processors. I wouldn't be surprised if there are connector adapters or conversion cables now... Another option is if it is still spdiff output and a proprietary connector, you can make a custom cable with their connector on one end and toslink on the other. I found some people trying that when I was working on my processors.
*Edit* The installation manual for that HU definitely shows a Toslink connector although they do not specifically name it.
**Edit** I just read a thread on DIYmobile, they are saying it is toslink as well. Very nice looking HU, I wish my BMW infotainment system were not such a vital piece of the car. I would love something like this...
Good Luck,
Jason
