It has two USB ports. One for connecting a USB Drive (Up to 2T) or USB Stick and another for Audio output. And it has an I2S connector, too. I believe it's using the PS Audio connection wiring. Plus AES-EBU, Coax S/PDIF and Optical S/PDIF, too.
Plus, you can connect via Bluetooth to output or DNLA and Apple AirPort WiFi via their own app. I haven't tried any of those yet.
There is no Ethernet input, so, to use it as a streamer you must use their App or Bluetooth.
But I bought it for CD playback only.

Look at the back panel photo.
The USB socket is an input one, not an output for connection to a DAC.
I see no I2S, although I'm used to this being in the form of HDM!

- That's the EC-3, the CD Player. Not this ET-3 - creativepart 08:37:19 01/05/24 (2)
  Their CD Player the EC3 doesn't have I2S. But this Transport does. I made a typo in my original thread title. This transport is the ET-3 and it does have an HDMI-Type I2S output. You'll see it below the two USB inputs on the rear panel photo below.

  - But this Thread is about the EC3, Isn't it? nt - cawson@onetel.com 08:40:32 01/05/24 (1)
    PS - I see the OP has just realised he's bought something other than the EC3!

    - No, I realized the model name is ET3 exactly what I wanted. Just a typo. (nt) - creativepart 08:46:11 01/05/24 (0)
