In Reply to: RE: As I await the arrival of my shiny new Schiit Bifrost, some coax/optical/USB questions... posted by TubeDriver on May 29, 2012 at 11:59:11:
With my computer, I only have the choice of USB. My CDP offers both coaxial and optical digital outputs, so I suppose I'll discover my preference between those two (so far, I only have coax and USB cables on their way).
Though the direct comparison wouldn't apply to my situation, would you describe the differences you heard between Toslink and USB? Which specific Toslink cable would you recommend if I might like to compare it to my coax cable?
The Bifrost was just shipped today (USPS Priority, so it should be here very soon! :)). If it makes a wonderful difference for both my main and computer systems, I'll purchase another (second one would be for main system, so could do without the USB input I've had included on this one).
