Esoteric USB input issue
Hi Folks, Firstly, I am just starting to shop for a server for my K-03. I am looking at the Aurrender S10 or a Bryston BDP-2 setup. I have been informed by a dealer that I can not use the USB input on any Esoteric because of the lack of software driver for the Esoteric. Thoughts? Suggestions??

Yes, but I have been "told" that USB is superior. I admit, I am new to this, and I don't quite understand why this issues exists. Is it common? Thanks for the above post! SO I can install the driver and go USB?

At this point I think virtually all newer DACs support Asynchronous and offer a driver download. I'm sure there are exceptions. |

The USB input will work with a PC running Windows or a Mac OS X machine because Esoteric supplies USB drivers for those platforms.
The Aurender is a Linux based server and as such, does not have the necessary drivers needed to connect to the Esoteric. The Aurender was designed iirc to run best on AES so that's the connection to use with the Esoteric.
