The cables and DDC came in yesterday, but only had time to install and prove it was working. I replaced the coax with a new coax instead of switching over to optical. Didn't want to mess with reassigning inputs on the AVR.
I got to listen to it for about 1 1/2 hours today. I got up and walked around the chair, numerous times. I did not experience any dropouts. Positive sign, but will wait until having 3-4 more listening sessions before claiming victory.
This DDC is the smallest yet. Tiny thing and uses a type C connector VS B, like the other two I have. It is still USB 2.0. I went with a 1' usb cable VS the one meter I had. The one I had was "stiffer" than I like. I think it was putting more stress on the connectors. I did order a 6" USB to leave the DDC on top of the cabinet. The other one was buried within.
On a side note, found a Moode feature I wasn't aware of. Using preferences to link to Wikipedia (or other options) from the play screen song title. I like it!
