I currently have mine conneted to my Onkyo via HDMI lead.

Is this giving me the best audio quality? or, should i be using an optical lead?

I assume (dangerous game) that using the HDMI lead gives me the use of the Onkyo's Burr Brown DAC's?

saves me having to buy a wadia itransport anyway.

You are correct to connect via HDMI. The optical is there for people who can't connect via HDMI or who's receivers won't take audio via HDMI.

Although both options will use the receivers DAC's.
