USB Out - how’s it going?

[Steve Woodhouse]

How are people finding using the USB out to an external DAC?

Flakey? As solid as using optical or coax digital out?

Any issues?

Zero issues for me. Partly due to a paucity of connections on my amp, my mini is connected via optical, my Pro via coax, Pro Plus over RCA and Ultra via USB. No problems with any of them

 

[Mr Ee]

Solid.

 

[Burnside]

As a rock.

Should this comment be in the music section?

No problems, but the coaxial spdif is the output that brings the best sound from the Ultra, at least with my dac.

No issues here. I have an external DAC hooked up

Would be nice to have SUB Out working together with USB Out. I have a subwoofer and can't use it yet because of that. But other than that, USB works great!

Wait? You can’t use the subwoofer with usb out? So no bass management at all with an external DAC and amp?
