Trinnov does come ( now) with one pre loaded target curves, the sound quality in my room improved when Christopher Faller of Illusonic created the EQ.

No. AES is pro/balanced version of S/PDIF. It is almost identical to S/PDIF so runs synchronous.Is the AES interface asynchronous? Is it pretty standard for components to buffer this input and re-clock like they do with USB/XMOS?
Alert: Stupid questions below!
3. If I buy these, I will want to stream to my PC and connect the PC to these. Any recommendations for USB to AES converters?
AES67, AES IN, AES OUT and BALANCED IN. Very nice!
AES67? Is that what HiQnet is?AES67, AES IN, AES OUT and BALANCED IN. Very nice!
Yes. It’s compatible with AVB and Dante.AES67? Is that what HiQnet is?
Fantastic! Can't wait to hear your impressions on the sound and how they compare to the M2s in stereo music listening.
I heard them when I took a trip to Harman and knew I had to have them at some point. First I got the M2's and now the 708P's.Fantastic! Can't wait to hear your impressions on the sound and how they compare to the M2s in stereo music listening.
I wish that standard would infiltrate consumer gear more.Yes. It’s compatible with AVB and Dante.

I’m not a fan of Dante. I think all of the AES67 implementations have a way to go. But I’m happy for the things they can do.I wish that standard would infiltrate consumer gear more.
Does Roon work with these yet?Yes. It’s compatible with AVB and Dante.
Yes. I know for sure it works with Dante and Ravenna because I’ve used both.Does Roon work with these yet?
So basically your saying having owned the M2's you then find JBL's latest to be even better and cost a small fraction as much.
More seriously a description of the 708 vs the M2 seems like it would be interesting from someone blessed with both.
I hate giving my subjective opinions on audio equipment. I'll say this though. When I was at Harman they had the 705P, 708P and M2's setup in their room on an Intona. You can blindly listen and switch speakers without knowing what is playing. I failed 50% of the time on what was playing. They said that only really well trained listeners of those speakers which at the time were the engineers can do better. A lot of it depends on the content that is playing of course. Small speakers simply aren't able to produce the bass but you'd be shocked at how much you would fail too. So before you ask the question "why did you get the M2 then?". The simple answer is because I can and didn't want to have the "what if" over my head. In the end I couldn't be happier with the M2 and have ZERO regret. The 708P will be for a second system unless I move again where the M2 isn't able to be used if it was a very small space. The 708P is pretty spectacular though!
