I am imagining this setup: Plug a USB or HDMI cable into my computer. Plug the other end into a hub. 5 speakers and a subwoofer all plug into the hub. Plug the hub into a AC power outlet.
So there would still be one DAC, and it would be in the hub. Is a DAC really that expensive? Why can't they be everywhere?
