my amp has a port
Your amp’s DAC is likely to be better than that in the Chromecast

It was digital out, not digital in. Probably explains why I didn't try it 3 yrs ago when I got the chromecast. At least I checked before ordering things. I really don't belong in this thread do I 😉

You could output the Chromecast to an inexpensive DAC like this one, but you might not get a hugely noticeable improvement, or go for something posher for nicer sound. https://www.futureshop.co.uk/blustream-dac12au-digital-to-analogue-converter-dac-simultaneous-analogue-and-digital-output?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI9J3OwO2F5wIVhLTtCh2QPgbvEAQYBCABEgInEvD_BwE
