BlueOS Changes Coming?

Currently, I use an optical cable from a BlueSound Vault to my external DAC, then analog cable into the receiver. I assume USB between Vault and DAC would produce some improvement but not sure I'd hear the difference. Hopefully its more than that which they're announcing. 

T hey dropped the new PC vewrsion last night. It is huge poster wall of album art of albums I liked/lisatened to and the algotithm really did a good job. Much preferred for my taste.

Thanks for posting that. Will look forward to the mobile rollout/update once available.

@rongvk I don't believe you can use the USB as a digital output on the Vault.  This feature was added on the newest version of the Node (N130). The Vault was not updated and is essentially the same generation as the older Node 2i.

@rongvk  I wanted to mention that I just experimented with changing out my Cullen coax digital cable from my Node 2i to my DAC and instead trying a Wireworld Toslink optical cable.  

Apparently a lot depends on which connection the designer of the streamers and DACs optimize, but in my case using the Toslink connection was clearly not as good as the coaxial.
