The XMOS based USB solution has been pretty solid for several years and many DAC makers use XMOS internally. The older XMOS versions are fine but I -think- the main difference in the latest ones is the much higher sample rates they can handle. As far as I know they've all been "driver-less" on Mac and Linux systems for many years.
