Edit: Nevermind...I see the key word here is 'asynchronous" and I'm reading up in the archives. Thanks

All things being equal when using a computer (Mac) as a source with the MicroDAC, is the USB connection preferred or is the toslink or coaxial connection preferred?

I'm going to be replacing my Rotel CDP source with an old G4 tower and am looking at DAC options. Should I be concerned about the mini>RCA connection? I'd *rather* not spend more than the price of the MicroDAC. Would I be better off doing an Airport Express > 300 dollar toslink DAC?

I have pondered the same question. Lots of folks think USB is the best way to go. I'm happy with my Microdac. For now.
