What are the advantages over using HDMI vs USB. Currently feeding my Oppo 105 into a Roon Nucleus. I've been getting some drops when playing 192/24 files via HDMI. 96/24 files are fine. Did not notice the same when using USB. What will I being missing out on if I switch back to USB? I really dont have many 192/24 albums.

 

HDMI audio timing is usually derived from the video clock, which results in timing errors/increased jitter. USB being an asynchronous protocol has no such issues. And yes, USB works just fine for multi-channel audio.
