Up for your consideration is a Bryston BUC-1 USB Converter.

Bowers & Wilkins P5 Wireless
I never experienced any appreciable difference in performance between wired and wireless modes, I am certain of that...even without any noise like you describe experiencing, that would have driven me mad. I never had reason to reach out for support...the contact us section of their webpage...- fbny71

Mytek Brooklyn Thread
I really only use my Brooklyn DAC+ in my 2 channel speaker setup...I rarely use headphones. My un-audiophile description of the difference would be wider, fuller, as well as louder.- fbny71

That would have helped me last year when I bought my adapter! And it would have been made in America...Will probably buy another from there too!- fbny71

Mytek Brooklyn Thread
It took about two weeks to arrive in New York from China. On the plus side, it only cost $26.82 shipping included if I'm not mistaken. This was the seller: https://www.ebay.com/usr/jiangzhan2012?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2754- fbny71

Mytek Brooklyn Thread
I got an adapter made by an eBay seller out of China. I just sent them a link to the Mytek spec for the adapter and they wired it custom for me. It was very inexpensive but took a few weeks to arrive. I can dig out the seller info if anyone wants it.- fbny71

Mytek Announces Clef Mobile MQA DAC/Amp @ CES 2017
I am very interested in the Clef so this has all been very disappointing to hear. As enticing as the iFi XDSD I opted for the $99 Bluewave GET Wireless DAC/Amp from Massdrop. I love my Brooklyn DAC+ and haven't had any of the negative customer service experiences others have described (maybe...- fbny71

Mytek Brooklyn DAC+ / Apple remote functionality
Just wondering if anyone knows how, or if it's even possible, for the Apple remote to control song play back functions. I'm using the DAC+ with a Mac Mini using Roon and Tidal.- fbny71

These closeups are so you can see the wonky stitching. Appears to be structurally sound but not as pretty as the ones in the pictures:- fbny71

Bowers & Wilkins P5 Wireless
I received the Chinese replacement ear pads. The stitching is not as neat as it is on the photos but the pads should hold up. The material does feel close enough to the leather on the original pads. The reason I got them though was comfort and I’m that regard they deliver...at least in my case...- fbny71
