bump.
question.
my motherboard(z77 sabertooth) has a toslink optical output, i've disabled this option in replace for USB dac's in the past, as we all know onboard sound is utter rubbish.
i've recently enabled onboard audio again so that i can use the toslink option, all this talk of optical being better, i thought i'd give it a try.
now i'm not sure, is the signal passed directly to the hugo, or does it run though onboard sound first > hugo?
also does the hugo not remember which source input was chosen when you turn it off?
It will go thru the sound card for digital (flac) to digital (spdif) encoding and send out via toslink.
The actual Digial to analog is done in Hugo.
HUGO has no memory and remembers nothing
