Hello,
I will buy a Synology in order to store and read FLAC files through the iTunes client. I thought that I had to buy an Apple TV3 (which I did) or Airport Express to transfer the files to the hifi amp, but I understand from some topics in the forum that this is not needed, as a USB to SPDIF adapter will suffice and will even provide a better sound quality. Can anyone confirm that? are all the USB to SPDIF adapters the same? which brand would you advise? does it matter if it is USB 2.0 or USB 3.0?
Many thanks for your help
