David Le Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Is the USB on Klein SE supposed to sound better than the coaxial Bill?
Bill125812 Posted November 2, 2015 Author Posted November 2, 2015 Hi David It's not actually for the Klein SE I'm trying another DAC. Comparing it to the Klein The Klein to my ears does sound better with the USB. But the coax Is bloody good as well. Not too much between them Cheers

krakatana Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Pro-music USB audio interfaces can do coax -> USB eg. see Focusrite, Native Instruments, M-Audio, Roland etc etc

DdDesign Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 I am interested in what you find? I am wanting to do the same thing. Connect a DAC that only has USB input to a cd transport. Would this do the trick? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/616368-REG/Behringer_UFO202_UFO202_USB_1_1.html

Would this do the trick? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/616368-REG/Behringer_UFO202_UFO202_USB_1_1.html Unfortunately in my circumstance I need a digital input (coax ). So the Behringer won't work for me.

pete_mac Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Hifimediy have cheap DACs which do optical to USB, but I'm not sure whether they do coax to USB.
Happy Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Hifimediy have cheap DACs which do optical to USB, but I'm not sure whether they do coax to USB. If Bill's real desperate, there's an Optical to Coax converter too 1

Arrrrr

Happy Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Hey. Back up. Said I was just looking. Will take some time for me to actually do it. Another suggestion - get that camera kit for your ipad so that you can draw USB out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
