I use the Trends UD-10.1 to connect my computer to my APL Denon 3910 with a digital input board using S/PDIF. And with that setup, I can play back the same track through iTunes and the CD, simultaneously (or almost). And when I switch between the two as the music is playing, they are VERY close to identical.

The differences I hear between the two could be attributable to the quality of the rip (ie. ripping software and hardware used) and perhaps the quality of the USB cable from the computer to the Trends. Incidentally, this is why I'm eager to listen to the Synergistic Research USB cable that Mercman brought to my attention.

Based on this, I would have to agree that the Trends UD-10.1 is VERY good for the price assuming you have a very high quality DAC with a very high quality digital input board.
