Substitute for Waveterminal U24

About a week ago I ordered a Waveterminal U24 to use in converting a USB signal from my computer to a sp/dif signal that I could feed into my Musical Fidelity Trivista DAC. I got a note back today from the company that I ordered from saying that the model had been discontinued. I've done some checking around on the internet and that appears to be true.

Does anyone know of a comparable external device that will do a good job of converting USB to (RCA coax) sp/dif?

If this is used for the digital output, how does SNR matter?

I use Transit for digital output. If you are willing to spend more, there are many Transit-based mods.

You're right. I was responding to the first poster's comment on SNR.

Squeezebox 3. I use it with my Tri-Vista with good results, awaiting a modified version to see if mods help.
