    I am open to audio prescriptions!

    Our DAC has not been functioning for a couple of weeks, so I'm crying the 'upgrade and/or repair' blues.

    Our Ayre QB-9, acquired as a temporary replacement, is not cutting it.

    Upgrade?
    Yggdrasil A2 gen 5?
    Ditch USB and try I2S?

    Get rid of USB @PsiPhi. QB-9 was good for its time but time to move on.

    Thanks for the encouragement!

    After 25 years on technical side of the recording industry, I have a fair amount of experience with optical/spdif/AES, (as well as various clocking schemes).

    Generally speaking, my feelings are that

    Implementation > Architecture

    But it's fun to try new things! I have very little experience with the 1986 I2S protocol.
