Connecting Oppo 103 to Ayre QB-9 DSD

I am thinking about purchasing Ayre QB-9. However, QB-9 only accepts USB Type B. Is there a way to convert HDMI or Coax into USB for audio only? Can this be done and generate hifidelity results?

Thanks.

I like the 9, but it’s VERY source fussy. I haven’t heard the Codex, but hear good things about it. How about a Mytek 192? About $1k new since it’s discontinued (direct from Mytek) and will take optical and coax inputs.
