If you dismiss dual stage clock recovery PLLs out of hand as not being immune to jitter then there is no sense in re-hashing my original arguments. We'll just go around in circles again. I know John S insists that PLLs are not efficient as well. I don’t buy it but I'll just drop the entire discussion and invite everyone to purchase a $550 USB cable unless they happen to own your above recommended DACs.
Before leaving I will say this. Isn't it remarkable that Broadcast TV, Cable and Satellite can transmit a 1080i signal with synched 5.1 Dolby surround streamed at > 20mbps without error across tens of miles of nothingness but audiophiles have anxiety attacks with pushing less than 20kbps down 1 meter of cable? And reasonably priced dual stage clock recovery PLLs aren't good enough!
