The Esoteric's voltage controlled crystal oscillator (VCXO) clock controls the time when using the USB asynchronous HS_2 input on the K-03. At this stage of my experience with the Aurender N10 and the K-03 DAC I prefer the coaxial output so that I can take full advantage of the astonishing accuracy of the N10's oven controlled crystal oscillator clock. As I spend more time with the music server in the future I will do some critical coaxial to USB asynchronous input comparisons. I will report my discoveries as they appear.
Sounds like a good plan. I'll keep an eye out for your thoughts.
