After contacting Bryston I then learned that the reason is that USB connection in the SP3 is limited to 44.1khz/16 bits and 48 kHz/16 bits. Also the USB input in the SP3 is not asynchronous which can lead to timing issues. So here is a piece of advice: if one has any high resolution file, say 96/24 or DSD, don't use the USB input to play it on the SP3!

Now I see why the SP3 needs an asynchronous and updated USB board!
I think they are working on a USB upgrade board.
