[QUOTE="croak, post: 356540, member: 361"] I guess I am referring to very compact thumb drive sized DACs that are USB only and asynchronous. Yes, marketing perhaps made it the "first" with a very wide acceptance and popularity and others are now working hard and well to be in that spot.. For some their main dac, for others a travel or office DAC. The point I was perhaps trying to make is that if you forego SPDIF inputs and look at USB only DACs you get a lot of sound for the bucks. Similar spec devices with USB and SPDIF inputs seem to cost 1/3 to half more for no gains if used only from a puter. [/QUOTE]
