I use a Behringer Ultramatch SRC2496 because I have it, it still works, and it provides me with the ability to convert the toslink output on my source to AES/EBU input on my digital crossover. I like the level meters and pretty indicator lights. It has a headphone jack with a touchy volume control - gets very loud quick on typical headphones! My biggest gripe is that the power supply can vibrate and make the chassis hum so I have to damp it down to keep it quiet.
What Digital to Digital Converter Do You Use? Why?
I have an iFi Zen Stream and am considering using a digital to digital converter to convert the iFi's USB to i2s into the May Holo DAC.
I guess the question that arises is if this approach is sonically better than USB directly into the DAC.
So, who can offer some advice based on personal experience? Yes, I do realize that your DAC and streamer differ from mine.
