DSD Handling: DOP vs. Native

Audio Components DACs
1

Signal path:

Antipodes K30 Running ROON > USB > DirectStream DAC MK2 (latest update)

Antipodes DSD Handling Settings, I have these options: 1) DOP; 2) Native; 3) None.

Which setting will the DirectStream DAC MK2 be happiest receiving?

Thanks!

Jonathan

Ted Smith made a comment that raw DSD is converted to DOP immediately at reception in the mk 2 DAC.

I have a K50 and use Native for DSD settings! If you want to save $s, do not run ROON. I use Squeeze because I think the sound quality is better. I use a I2S connector instead of a USB connector.
