Does anyone have experience how the audio performance is from a Touch or
Classic with analogue signal compared to a cheap USB DAC (below $100)
used with Raspberry PI/Wandboard/PogoPlug/SheevaPlug or similar ?
Is the Touch significantly better than a cheap USB DAC ?
What about a Squeezebox Classic compared to a cheap USB DAC ?
Is it important if the USB DAC is synchronous or asynchronous at this
price level ?
I'm not really looking for a high-end solution, so something that's
comparable to a Touch would definitely be good enough, I could live with
something that's comparable to a Classic also but it feels pointless to
invest in something new unless it's at least at the same level as a
Squeezebox Classic with analogue outputs.
Since this is a temporary solution while waiting for the Community
Squeeze project to evolve, I'd prefer to not invest more than $100 or
something similar.
If it's worth to get a USB DAC for $100, does anyone have a
recommendation which one to get ?
