Hi again !
i have followed with great interest a thread on modifications of usb to spdif converters sometime ago.
I do not know if you are on DIY but i read that modifications in the power supply and the use of more precise crystals can provide nice improvements in sound.
These mods can be quite simple to carry out (like a different transformer and ps caps) and my feeling is that they can elevate a cheap but "sane" unit (like the Gustard U12 in the link) to a higher level of performance.
I found those threads extremely interesting and educational.
Some people are very passionate about this topic. Usb to spdif conversion if well executed sounds really really nice. Low noise and clock precision are key issues.
Kind regards,
bg
