usb?

They love it as it adds a baseline cost of e50 with the usb card. Plus, of course, isolation bits and power supply with perhaps another e50. This means a retail cost of 6x base cost.

In mid-end cases, it is better and more economic to use spdif with relock and wave shaping. In high end cases 384k spdif can be had. Most computer based hardware spdif is junk, with little understanding of proper implementation.

Even some designers think that cheap phono plugs are ok, or are forced to use them.
