I thought the issue was that usb delivers info in packets, and that the other interfaces more as a continuous stream. USB was originally designed for printers and other applications where the timing isn’t as critical as audio.
Best Digital Interface
It is my understanding that Asynchronous USB may be the best interface for digital transfer to a USB DAC. If the DAC has
Asynchronous USB then it basically owns the signal and basically re clocks timing, bits etc for a more perfect transfer if fed USB? I am streaming from a Node 2 into an RME DAC. I know there is no USB output from the Node. I have a few questions:
1. Is there a Coax to USB adapter available? Does this make sense?
2. Are there other reasonably priced (>1k) streamers that have USB output?
Thanks!
