I have a Home Theatre PC in my living room which I also use for Oculus Rift gaming. My old Theta DAC doesn't have a USB input so the best method has been to employ an HDMI breakout box between the PC and the HT receiver. This sends S/PDIF straight to the Theta. Using WASAPI settings in Kodi it sounds better than my CXU streaming the same files
