TOPIC:

I wonder if someone has experience in using different inputs on the SHD Studio. After doing the initial USB configuration and Dirac Calibration.

A higher quality clock like Mutec MC-3 USB -> AES/EBU to SHD Studio, will get better results rather than SHD Studio directly to computer via USB? Is it worth upgrade and bypass miniDSP internal clock?

Thank you

We haven't but just so you know, AES-EBU is typically 20 to 24bit max. USB audio on the other hand is 32bit on the SHD Studio.

Outputs of the SHD Studio are also AES and SPDIF to the DAC, so 24bit 96kHz..

Also I wonder, when SHD Studio is connected through USB to a computer, is it better to set the output settings of audio/midi setup to 96kHZ to match the internal sample rate of the device, or it's the same, as SHD will upsample it anyway?

Thank you
