There is experimental work to use the USB output, which for some DACs is recommended for best performance (Asynchronous USB DACs, for example). I am using my Touch via USB thanks to Triode's, John Swenson's and others' work (see http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93310). But back to your question: if you have good WiFi reception, there is no need to run cables. The Touch has a large buffer (20 seconds-worth I believe, for lossless). If you are trying to tweak the most out of your system, it has been argued that Ethernet can produce better sound provided other steps are taken, but I have not taken them. See the Audiophiles sub-forum and TT 3.0 threads etc. -- tufty ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tufty's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=47700 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93893 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
