New interface for 3.14?
The subjective part of the review notes and describes sonic differences between the different USB outputs on the Bryson, something that doesn’t have any technical explanation.
Maybe somebody from Bryson will chime in and explain why their USB outputs sound different.
In asynchronous isochronous USB, the DAC determines the sound in a properly designed interface.
I’d also note that the reviewer doesn’t mention the music he was using to make these determinations, so it’s pretty difficult to reproduce them.
By the way I have no doubt the reviewer heard these differences, it’s just that they probably actually don’t exist in the physical world.
On the other hand, subtle differences in AES, USB, and S/PDIF outputs may exist and can be explained, especially USB compared to the other serial interfaces.
