In Reply to: RE: In fact, some folks prefer S/PDIF vs. asynchronous USB posted by Roseval on October 05, 2016 at 14:42:41
The OP mentioned his computer features a built-in S/PDIF output jack (I don't know if he means S/PDIF digital coaxial or S/PDIF digital optical). To the best of my knowledge, the signal path of the S/PDIF output will have nothing to do with the functionality of a USB port which would indeed be involved if a USB to S/PDIF converter were used for the application.

Hi Duster,
Thanks for the link. I'll check it out tonight. BTW, it is an optical S/PDIF that would go directly from the PC's motherboard to the DAC. Might as well get a Toslink cable and experiment.
You might be interested in the excellent Lifatec Silflex glass Toslink cable. It's an outstanding digital optical cable -- both regular Toslink and Mini-Toslink connector options are available. The Lifatec cable is what I use for the digital optical output jack of my iMac computer workstation system.

Duster,
Thanks for the recommendation. I'll give this cable a look.
