I’m looking to invest in a set of Genelec monitors and subwoofers. With this setup I will need a piece of equipment with digital AES output to feed the monitors and subs because they have onboard DACs that work with Genelec’s room correction software. I’m planning to have these monitors setup with my computer which has USB and optical outputs.
I’m considering:
-
SMSL SD-9 (https://www.amazon.com/S-M-S-L-Decoding-Bluetooth-Network-Support/dp/B096Z3VCQY
-
Matrix X-SPDIF 2 (https://www.moon-audio.com/matrix-audio-x-spdif-2.html?sku=Matrix_X-SPDIF_2&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI6pONnILO9wIVZRtlCh3UzQr3EAQYASABEgItwPD_BwE).
I have preference towards the SD-9 given it has more features. Does anyone have experience using the SD-9 with Roon?
Thank you for reading
