Optical out was also the impetus for my TBAAM purchase. I really wanted to compare using a toslink cable against the USB to my Overture. In my case the USB was actually better. I even bought a high quality toslink cable (Van Den Hul Optocoupler Mk. II) which was pitted against a stock USB cable that came with a Sony camera. This should probably only deepen my perceived Team Budget-Fi status...heck I'm going to try coat hangers for ICs with tin-foil for shielding...I'm going Team Ghetto-Fi! It's really great though that the TBAAM came with a nice quality mini adapter for the toslink connector.
Good suggestion on the USB extension. I'll have to check the packaging to see if it's in there. I did notice that my headphone cable would sometimes make the TBAAM shift around, which I'm sure is not good long term for the USB port.
