Basically unless it's connected via USB2, the DAC is slaved to the SBT, using EDO or otherwise. -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver NAS with Debian+LMS 7.9.0 Music: ~1300 CDs, as 450 GB of 16/44k FLACs. No less than 3x 24/44k albums..

Yeah the name "asynchronous" seems to usually refer to DACs that support the USB2 asynchronous audio driver, not the other type that just uses an independent clock, despite it being arguable that both are a type of asynchronous.. -- Hardware: 3x Touch, 1x Radio, 2x Receivers, 1 HP Microserver N

I think there is confusion between "asynchronous DAC" and "DAC with asynchronous USB input" here. Yes, a DAC can run in a completely independent clock domain (from a clock completely isolated from the input), and this is fairly common these days. The problem is of course getting ahead or behind

DACs often reclock, but they have to "tune" their internal clock source to take account any small variation between it and the incoming data rate. Unfortunately the act of using a clock that can be tuned tends to reduce its jitter performance somewhat so the ideal is asynchronous USB, whereby the

hi all.. A guys selling a SBT and says hes been using a Audiolab MDAC and using a external 3rd party app via SBT . He seems the think the MDAC is asynchronous DAC. Correct me if Iam wrong here, but iam sure it is not, only maybe the Input Connection itself. To qualify as an asynchronous DAC, ever
