I, too, prefer it to the Anubis except for the Anibis' flexibility and nice volume control.

How do you have it connected to your server?
Via USB?
Yes or via the Sigma Streamer. I prefer using USB with JRiver and using the Sigma with Roon.

As far as the VC is concerned, if you use the e38 with JRiver on a PC, you can use this nifty DROK volume controller from Amazon: .

It can run JRiver's internal digital VC or exaSound's internal VC.

As an aside, there is also the Okto DAC8 Pro with it's built-in VC but it is PCM-only. Correction: The DAC8 will play PCM up to 192 kHz / 32 bit as well as DSD128 and DoP64.
