"Yes, but the Toslink will be a bit worse due to the additional conversions. If you system has a bad ground-loop, the Toslink will eliminate this, making the Toslink appear better."

IMO, the disadvantage of additional conversions is more than offset by the advantage of RF isolation. The RFI generated at the transport stays at the transport. It doesn't add to the RFI produced at the DAC. This is the main reason why Toslink is my choice for digital interconnect type. (I find such isolation almost requisite if your "transport" happens to be a desktop PC.)
