It’s the XUSB variant, actually not the one I asked for but I didn’t notice until I got home, and couldn’t be bothered to go back. I think I was intending to get the XBT or whatever the Bluetooth variant was.
I suppose Bluetooth is convenient, but once you digitize it to send over a digital connection, it’s probably better to just listen to a digital source at that point. When listening to vinyl, I prefer a pure analog path to the speakers/headphones.
The USB connection can be convenient, though, if you want a digital copy of something you can only find on vinyl.

In the two months since you wrote this is I’ve come to understand exactly what you mean about keeping the signal analog. Thank you.
