"People need to stop wasting their money chasing pipe dreams."
I'm dreaming of another pipe besides SPDIF! But in the meanwhile I'm sitting here enjoying music via coax at 16/44. My DAC's so old that's about all she has in her and the music is lovely, but not quite SOTA... But it may be improving soon as it closes in on "vintage".
I enjoy the convenience of USB on computers now that it works well and it is far more capable for audio than these real time, low bandwidth, unidirectional schemes my old stuff uses, but why stop there? As the cost of implementing Ethernet continues to drop in price, power and size I wonder if we still need local busses for audio period. What do you think? If we just networked our audio systems so many problems would be alleviated, especially the long cable issues. Physically an RJ-45 isn't much larger than the USB A connector...
