Thanks for the suggestion. I have a Cambridge Audio CXN with USB input and I believe it will accept 96/24 over USB. If so, all I need is to get usb c to usb b which shouldn't be an issue. (famous last words!) usb c to usb a adapter <===> usb a to usb b cable ====> CXN. I need to verify if my new MacBook Pro will output audio via the usb c ports.
The Musical Fidelity V-Link 192 is the top USB to S/PDIF converter in the V Series. It is completely powered by the USB bus of the connected computer. No wall-wort external power adapters needed or even possible. Using the V-Link 192 is as simple as connecting a standard USB cable on one end and an AES or coaxial cable on the other. There are ...
The coaxial looks like a normal phono socket, while the 3.5mm looks like a headphone socket and will probably be a mini optical. Anything to convert dicital (either coaxial or optical) will need a DAC (Digital to Analogue Converter). This is a powered device, not just some cable or adaptor. Another option is to use a USB DAC instead of the SP-DIF.
Reviews. The M2Tech hiFace has received a lot of press this year. It was one of the first very inexpensive asynchronous USB to S/PDIF converters to support all sample rates from 16/44.1 kHz through 24/192 kHz. The hiFace's good specs, good technical design, support for high resolution sample rates, and $150 price tag has had users from all over ...
On the other hand, the BADA Alpha USB needs both cables, and in the setup I tested it with ($600 AQ Diamond USB + $600 D-60 SPDIF cable) is over $3k. This is 3x as much as the AP2 + PP (AP2 is the same as AP1, but with less features) which can be had for $1k. Please take this ranking with a grain of salt though.
An excellent usb dac so you could use it into the analogue input of your speakers. And it’s also a usb to optical output converter so can be used as that too. You’d need one of these too as the Meridian uses a mini toslink output. TosLink Cable Lead Optical Digital Adapter to 3.5mm Mini Jack Plug Adaptor 5056077504939 | eBay
High end, high style, and high class Meridian Audio has delivered another winning product without the matching high price tag. Meridian surprised many audiophiles earlier this year with its $299 Explorer portable DAC / headphone amplifier. Today Meridian released its $699 Director digital to analog converter. The Director is a larger unit but still much smaller than most high end components. I ...
Or Topping D10 as DAC /USB to SPDIF converter (not wireless) There are even cheaper WiFi or Airplay to SPDIf/Toslink chez Amazon. However, at that price point you may find a Wi-Fi DAC like the NAD wireless USB DAC 2 interesting. Only caveat - afaik - hi-res WiFi streaming at 192/24 is still expensive. Best, Tom
Followers 3. Chord Electronics of England is a high-end audio manufacture known for its somewhat quirky product design and high performance. Over the last couple of years, Chord has made quite a splash in high-end circles with its Digital-to-Analog-Converters (DAC for short). Starting with the iconic (and very expensive) “Dave” model DAC ...
After putting it some time, I found the Fanmusic FM-6011 ( Link to the cannuck version of amazon's product page ), an adapter that could, with the help of a USB Type A to B cable, transmit the digital signal from my computer, through one of its USB output, to the adapter and finally to the SPDIF input of the a-1050.
