I posted a week or so ago about differences I thought I heard on the analogue outputs of the 818v2 when feeding 192 or 96 via USB, which is tangentially relevant. I will try the test you suggest with my 8ks but that will take a week or two. (The 818 is not currently plugged into them, as I'm not finished setting up after a major move-around of rooms and equipment.)
