Iphone, By using the flow control capabilities of USB, the clock in the DAC can be completely isolated from the rest of the data delivery chain. In principle, this would allow a local low jitter clock to be used in the DAC instead of the compromise of using a clock derived from the S/PDIF bitstream.
I would therefore challenge your statement that "COAX S/PDIF is not a perfect format but its way above any USB format". A properly implemented asynchronous USB link should have none of the vices of S/PDIF, at the expense of greater complexity in hardware and software. -- Andy8421 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Andy8421's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16846 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82040 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
