have u considered using toslink from source to dac? Quite a “troublefree” solution compared to usb.
Many people have reported that toslink sounds soft. Is that not a concern?
For example: "Starting with AudioQuest Carbon coaxial and AudioQuest Vodka Toslink digital cables, the difference was primarily in clarity. That is, the sound was less transparent and softer with the Toslink cable, and soundstage depth was reduced compared with that of the coaxial cable. The differences in sound quality between AudioQuest Toslink and coaxial cables running between the Oppo player and Arcam DAC were larger than I expected."
