[QUOTE="Skookum, post: 1018475, member: 21551"] In my opinion.... Other than unlikely throughput issues in the digital domain you wouldn't have data loss or loss of "quality" despite the various conversions. Until the audio has been through a DAC it exists in the digital domain purely as data. Checks and balances, even correction (Hamming Code) exist to ensure data integrity. Our entire existence depends reliable transmission of data across the globe. As an example it makes no difference when the data is being transmitted over Ethernet if the data is transmitted from the next room or the next continent, reliability is critical. Many streaming services are built around this and again, as long as the data can be transmitted and received fast enough, you will be fine. Maybe use the solution with the fewest cables to simplify cable management. [/QUOTE]
