The latter is better (more precise, perfect channel matching) and also what the a90d has.
Is it that simple? Because I remember the Loxjie P20 driving me crazy with X being too quiet and X+1 being too loud. It was the main reason I sold it. Similar thing with the BT volume control on my V40. They were able to do 75 steps for the 'quad DAC' mode, but BT has 15
Of course there are trade-offs. I'm currently using a THX 887 and it had lasted ~6 months before the pot developed a noise issue. I know I can clean it, but that's super quick for a new device. My HUD-MX1 took >5 years before I had to clean the volume pot. I wonder how the pots on the A90s are faring.
