I purchased one of these for my RME-ADI 2 DAC, its been great and really reliable.

Thanks for the link - that might do the job.  I also have the same DAC - do you feel the RME-ADI2DAC benefited from its use?

I have a minty black M2Tech HiFace USB-SPDIF converter. AU$120 includes postage from NZ.

My Lenovo Tiny PC was creating harsh treble via USB to the RME, like an edgy glare to the sound. I purchased the optical converter to try and solve it. It solved the problem and overall sounds better than it ever did via USB. Its a quality little converter, doesn't crash or cause issues, just hides behind my desk and does its job.

They also have a larger model.

Thanks for the information. I haven't had any problems like that with my Intel NUC, but good to know.
