24/96 capable now. I was curious if anyone has tried it. I've read a few reviews but none really mention the quality of analog output. My case is a special needs situation. I have ALS and have lost the use of my hands. I control my tablet using only my eyes. I'm a former studio engineer so keeping things simple isn't my nature. I like variety but cable swapping is a thing of the past. I am currently using two of the original Chromecasts (living room and bedroom) via hdmi thru Pioneer VSX receivers. They sound fantastic but its using the Pioneer's DAC. I use Plex web app to access my movie and music libraries and cast to the Pioneers and it works beautifully. My plan is to get a few of the new Chromecast Audios for my Little Dot and powered studio monitors (Mackie HR824 and KRK V6) enabling me to switch from one to another using eye control. I'm wondering if the sound will be acceptable without an external DAC (it has optical out). Does anyone have any experience with these?
