Better sound as determined by ears. There is no reason to know why unless you are building one.
You can improve the 2i with a better SPDIF cable depending on what you got.
Help understanding the digital signal for audio
Hi, I am using bluesound node 2i digital out into Denafrips Venus 2 Dac via coax cable. Since I am bypassing the dac in the node 2i does that mean the digital signal is being clocked and processed by the Venus DAC? If so how would an upgraded streamer change the sound?
Thanks
