Re: PCI 2 I2S interface existing?

There are barriers to making ANY solution sound good, but IMO the current best solution is USB. It will support 24/96 with most converters. Wi-Fi is not far behind though. The problem with most of these computer "transports" is jitter I believe. Solutions like my Pace Car will solve this ultimately.

As for I2S, it is hands-down the lowest jitter solution available, whether you are using a transport, USB converter or a Wi-Fi converter. The clock essentially drives the D/A chip directly. You cannot get any simpler than this.
