mainly just the name,

sound differents are due to the implementation of the chip,

The ESS are more warm sounding and the AKM are more smooth sounding. I personally actually prefer the AKMs, but that's just my taste

Will there be an optical input on this device? I can only see optical out on the pictures.

Not, in fact, we plan to remove the optical out from m17 because we can't figure out how to protect the optical connector.
