Why not a run high quality USB cable


Why not a run high quality usb cable from your pc or Mac to a dual mono DAC. By doing so you can have the shortest interconnects and speaker cable as possible with the least amount of inter reaction.
If this is even possible ?

Most active USB extensions dont work for audio streaming. I would recommend trying Opticis.

These repeaters usually interfere with the "back-channel" communications, both adaptive and asyc. They also add a LOT of jitter. Even if you get one to work you will probably need a reclocker to fix the jitter. I have at least one sitting in the reject box.
