• a lot of reviews online

    As with everything audio, unless they're giving you measured numbers it's all subjective and some sources are better at turning that experience in to an believable narrative than others. You also get a herd/emperors new clothes effect with the latest widget du jour.

    And on that note I googled your speakers to see what the USB input was doing and read the what Hifi? review, which was a masterclass in absolute guff!
    A particular highlight:

    We thought there was nothing left to be heard on Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours, but the HD Tracks download starkly reveals the contrast between the resignation of the verse and the bitterness of the chorus to Gold Dust Woman.

    Anyway, it's basically a DAC so as StevePeel says, plugging any digital source in should give the same result, unless there is a problem with ground loops and/or RFI in the setup somewhere.
