iMac far from audo rack - any suggestions?

Hi - I am curretly using an AppleTV as a transport (WAV files only) that connects via Toslink to my Reimyo DAC. I would like to go a step further and use my iMac/iTunes with Amarraaudio and feed my DAC.

The thing is that my iMac will be about 6 meters away from my audio rack, and since the only way to go out in digital domain from it is thru an USB port, I plan to use a PS Audio or similar USB/Coax converter.

Any ideas on how to face this issue besides moving the iMac to the rack itself?

Regards,

Fernando

Thanks a lot for your responses, a lot of options out there!

I tend to like the use of Airport Express thru MiniToslink output and feed my Reimyo from the Toslink IN option.

Interesting info about Amarra vs Pure Music, I will just try the later and learn what happens.

Is there anything like an Minitoslink -> Toslink adapter? I mention this because I have just invested in a Wireworld Toslink cable that I like a lot.
