Is there a way to play audio but not use the annoying HEOS app? Would like to just use the MacBook as a controller and not the HEOS app. The iMac says that the headphone port is also an optical digital audio out port.

What is the best interconnect solution?Ĭhoice 1: Use thunderbolt to HDMI converter and connect to Marantz via HDMI? A bit hesitant on this one as I don't want the projector/display on during 2 channel listening and have had setups where any HDMI cable activity would trigger the display (very annoying).
