The highest quality ouput ?

sorry wrong again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the newer super pro uses the Cirrus Logic's CS-8416 receiver chip
CS8416 - 192 kHz Digital Audio Receiver
the CS8416 is a 192 kHz Digital Audio Receiver

please read the spec



//www.itemaudio.co.uk/superpro_dac.html

CS8416 is the SPDIF receiver and CM108 is the USB receiver. So unless you're going SPDIF-out via a separate sound card or mainboard integrated sound you won't be getting 24/192, not without upsampling anyway.

And if you're going to use SPDIF-out you don't need USB input, that opens up lots of choices.

im going to be using spdif, i have read that the 707 dac still needs the usb input even if you're using spdif because the output stage uses power from the usb....even though it has a separate power supply

Not likely, the Super Pro had a version without USB input, just SPDIF.

Just get a usb to spdif convertor like musiland teralink or hiface, and buy a boutique DAC, like that the world is yours!
