Hi,
I just got my Metrum Onyx a few days ago and so far I'm very impressed by it.
I was wondering if getting a Matrix X-SPDIF 2 and feeding the Onyx through the AES or the SPDIF will improve the sound? If yes, is the AES or the SPDIF preferable? I have heard that the USB input of the Onyx is not it's strongest point.
Another reason is that I use Volumio and it doesn't work with the Onyx's USB input for some reason. I somehow managed to make it work 2 times out of ~20 by switching between DACs, but that worked until restart.
Thanks.
