I guess you are right... blush

Well, the 210 is connected via ethernet to the network and a co-axial SPDIF cable goes to the Yamaha.

No special pattern I think, but I will check more carefully.

I use it mainly with Roon, I usually stream Tidal and less locally. No DSD. I noticed it with both CD quality and High Definition content.
I control it with an iPad (wifi obviously).
