Any Juli@ / Buffalo users considering an ExaU21 as a Juli@ replacement.

This is a device that takes usb input and outputs I2S for up to 4(maybe more) channels. Several folks on the Exa website (see below) that had Juli@ I2S out to a Buf32s or dac that takes I2S say that the sonics are way superior. There is lots of stuff about this product on DIYAudio and the ExaU21 web site. Yes it is a bit pricey but it provides galvanic isolation between pc and dac and allows one to use a digital x-over (within a vst on cplay) which Juli@ does not on its digital output.
If anybody here has done it I would like to hear some feedback. In my setup currently I kludge I2S out from Juli@ use a beefed up power supply to power Juli@ and this results in a messy hardware arrangement. The ExaU21 could be mounted on the Buf32s board and take input from the pc usb output. Very neat potentially for me. Yes it is expensive... $430Canadian.

Gstew I would think you may be interested in this.
