So if I wanted to use the D1100 I actually had it go from Roon Nucleus via USB to the K-03x, then an AES digital XLR connection to the D1100 for decoding. No issues that way, and it’s great for A/B comparison, but I was literally using someone else’s properly functioning USB implementation for a $$ dac featuring USB.

Interesting and creative solution. Sad though that we are sitting here years later with a $7000 piece of equipment that can’t handle basic USB functionality without issues. Clearly, they don’t care, and won’t properly address it.
