November 11, 200916 yr Optical when on my desktop (ibasso D1 - sounds better via optical rather than USB) and usb (Pico DAC) when on my laptop.
November 11, 200916 yr Not currently using any, but will be soon. I like AES/EBU. I found that it sounded noticeably better than the coaxial input on my last Opus DAC.
November 11, 200916 yr Where is the option for it doesn't matter? If you have decent equipment, then you should be able to use any connection method without too much stress. Sure, you might be able to see jitter or a sloppy SPDIF signal on a scope, but IMHO audibility of such things is tenuous at best - unless you are very specifically listening for it.
November 11, 200916 yr Mac-Mini --- Dac Magic ----Toslink because thats all that will work SB3 ---- Overture ----- Toslink because thats all that will work Netbook ------ Pico ----- USB because thats all that will work Transporter ------ CA 840c ------ Coax RCA because I can I let the majority carry my poll vote
November 12, 200916 yr BNC, Because Nicaraguans Can, that's why. True 75ohm ftw, that's right! I said it.
November 12, 200916 yr Author RCA or USB if Pico. Why do you ask? There's another thread where we're talking about digital inputs being up to spec, and I wanted to put my concerns that my method is vastly inferior into perspective. Thanks Beefy
November 12, 200916 yr Smoke signals, because my music collection is currently in the hands of apache indians.
November 12, 200916 yr I voted RCA coaxial SPDIF since it's the most used link between the CEC CD transport and the Bidat DAC, or the Sony ES player into the DA11, but I'm using other connections depending on the setup: Computer>USB>Lavry DA11 CEC CD Transport > AES/EBU> Lavry DA11 Sony CD > Toslink> Bidat
