We all know what you meant by 'kit' in the context of your writing. The nitpick on this unrelated point is, well pointless.
Technical limitations don't often equate to sonic limitations. Although the USB interface CAN do DSD and PCM greater than 192-kHz who cares? Personally I never listen in DSD or PCM that high except when tinkering around rather than enjoying the music.
Some people have perfect rooms, perfect ratios, perfect cables, perfect amps, perfect preamps, perfect DACs, perfect streamers, etc. And they KNOW what a perfect system should be. How can anyone compete with that?
- As you say ......
I listen to music streamed from Qobuz, both CD and HQ and from my ripped CD library on FLAC. Also several radio stations and Radio Paradise. Why should I need anything more than AES/EBU is capable of? And because AES does the transfer better than other protocols, I choose it in preference over coax and optical. I have no use for USD apart from my Library, now stored on a USB SSD connected directly to my streamer

understands British-speak. Just a clarification for those who don't.
