Spdif usb converter

[Daliar]

Hello. I want to buy a usb, spdif converter. I found the cm6631A. What is your opinion? I have lampucera dac and I need the usb converter.

I ask if cm6631A is better or xmoa or something else

MiniDSP miniStreamer might be what you are looking for... USB interface with coax SPDIF input and output lines. Not expensive.

I am making a diy amplifier with dac and analog inputs, so I need a spdif board converter to connect the usb from pc to my dac.

I used a PCM2902B, it worked perfectly for my application. I'd have to investigate the CM6631A to comment on it.

I think that I will choose board with Cm6631A or Amanero board for usb converter.

What is your opinion?
Amanero
Cm6631A
Xmos U8

Nobody???
I have heard that xmos chip delivers hard the high frequencies. Does anyone believe that?

 

[abraxalito]

I don't believe it could be due to the XMOS chip directly. Could just possibly be a secondary effect of the XMOS having a higher power draw.

Is Xmos better chip than CM6631A or there are no much references?

 

[abraxalito]

I'd say not, solely based on power consumption. But its possible XMOS has reduced the power demands on the latest generation of chips. My knowledge of XMOS isn't up to date.

I see! Thanks for your answer.🙂
