As a digital hub, or DDC, can the r9 convert a digital coax input to a USB output?

Thanks.

Flagship All-in-One Digital Media Streamer FIIO R9 is coming!!! The R9 features a tall 6-inch 2160*1080 vertical (portrait) screen combined with the open Android OS for a thoroughly intuitive experience. The open Android OS not only allows the user to freely install and use third-party streaming music and other apps, it is also thoroughly refined so that the user does not have to worry about app compatibility problems.

The R9 adopts a unique metallic dual color scheme inspired by luxury cars, of which the mirrored polished metal part undergoes an 11-step polishing and electroplating process, meticulously creating an extraordinary flagship texture. Additionally, the high-density metal body is more robust and stable, helping to effectively reduce deformation and minimize degradation in sound performance caused by vibrations, thus ensuring stable delivery of high-quality music.

There are 2 days left before the Flagship All-in-One Digital Media Streamer R9 comes out. Let's stay tuned!

Thank you for that response.

Can you tell me if the R7 is able to convert spdif to USB? I assume not, but since the usb is handled a bit differently in both models I thought I’d check to be sure.

Thanks again

Flagship All-in-One Digital Media Streamer R9
The R9 adopts 2 ES9038PRO DAC chips, which went through accumulation and refinement in the R&D process of the M17 and other three high-end models, resulting in comprehensively improved audio indicators. Distortion in all frequencies, left and right channel balance, SNR and other parameters are the most excellent among all FIIO’s current products, and the sound performance is also the most clear, refined and complete.

Inside the R9 is the world’s first 8-channel THX AAA 788+ headphone amplifier design. These headphone amps, fed by a high-voltage power supply, are connected in parallel via 2×2 groups for a four-way fully balanced design, greatly enhancing transient performance. The comb-shaped heat sinks and optimized circuit layout dissipate heat efficiently, ensuring the R9 is capable of continuous and stable high-power output. The result is that the R9 is capable of outputting 7300mW per channel at 32Ω, 102% higher than that of R7.

There is 1 day left before the Flagship All-in-One Digital Media Streamer R9 comes out. Let's stay tuned!
