If I read this correctly, the Max and Home DAC's are technically identical with the exception of reclocking and upsampling. So theoretically in a jitter-free transport situation the obvious choice would be the Home module, since the advantages of the Max would be moot.

I'm not inferring anything here, and I realize that jitter-free is not a realistic term (as far as SPDIF goes anyway).

It would be cool to see the Home DAC vs. the Max DAC in a variety of transport situations. I'd especially like to compare the two using USB.

Sorry for hijacking!
