I think the element has to be a different configuration for the odac because its able to take more than just usb input, which means it likely isn't bus powered.
Ah. It appears the RCA jacks can be configured to be both output from the DAC and input to the amp. That can only be a good thing if it's not bus powered.
I know the DAC essentially performs like an ODAC rev B as it has the same chips. Whether a rev B actually sounds better than the original despite measuring better who knows as they use different brands of chips (Sabre vs TI) and both measure well.
