RE: A little pricey for my needs...

I think you may want to consider a convertor that is self-powered over one using the USB 5V line. From what I have been reading, it is a good idea to not overdo the USB 5V power requirements going through the MR to keep it from overheating. I had the W4S uLink and recall it had a sound signature more to the dark side of the spectrum, which would possibly play well with a DAC that is bright.. but there must be some other options on the used market due to how folks are seeming to change these DDC's quite often (I have had at least 6 myself)...
