RE: Let the grenade throwing begin...

I throwing a few roses. Your introducing an Async mode USB DAC will be good for audiophiles.

I'll throw more roses when the product appears and the pioneers who buy come back without arrows.

As a possible consumer, I appreciate your decision to keep the cost down by forgoing an SPDIF input and a volume control. I'd like to be an Ayre customer so this decision makes it more feasible for me.

I'm assuming that you will implement a digital filter at least as good as an off-the-shelf algorithm run in a PC. So I would not expect to use PC based upsampling. So the current limitation to a 96 KHz sample rate is OK for now.

Right now, there isn't much downloadable with a sample rate above 44.1 KHz that interests me. Some day there may be attractive content with sample rates greater than 96 KHz. If I've bought your DAC, I'll be looking for an upgrade then. Not a problem now.

So show us how good PC audio can be.
