That guy needs to get some head phones !!!
do they ship out old boards and assume the customer will do firmware flashing, or are new shippings updated?
the usb2 standard says max 16ft. cable, does that work?
thanks.
It will not, it will have balanced output and will be more expensive. You can't have everything...As far as it remains at $99 is fine.

New setup pi + volumio -usb-> khadas tone board -spdif-> onkyo 373
No matter what everything is going through the receiver's DAC. ...
No, SPDIF out of KTB to Onkyo DAC.Are you saying the analog out of the Khadas Tone Board DAC is going through an ADC and DAC in your receiver ???
No, SPDIF out of KTB to Onkyo DAC.
So you are using the VIM/Khadas Tone Board combo as a USB to S/PDIF converter ?
Does that use the DAC in the Khadas Tone Board ?
No, you don't need VIM for SPDIF out on KTB VIMs edition.I did read that you need a KTB + VIM for the SPDIF and figured what the heck
No, you don't need VIM for SPDIF out on KTB VIMs edition.

I'm sorry for confusion, it seems that Khadas data is not best explained.Thanks for the clarification. I was under the impression it required the VIM to be used as an output.
