Connecting a Melco N1 to the NDac

[alainbil]

For a couple of years my Melco N1A/2 USB out was connected to the NDac with a Shiit Eitr ,USB to SPDIF interface.

My Eitr is apparently dead and cannot be reordered (the product is discontinued).

Do you have any suggestion for a replacement ?

M2tech hiface 2
Around 180 euros
Or more expensive, but probably the best: Audiophileo/ pure power

frenchrooster,
I had this M2TECH once and sold it because of compatibility problems …I recommend to test before buy.

[alainbil]

I have the M2TECH Hiface. With my system and to my eras the
Eitr is better.

[frenchrooster]

It was recommended by my dealer, but some years ago already.

The Audiowise SRC-DX is a recent addition to the market and can provide either single BNC or double BNC out…

[alainbil]

My dealer recommended it too. But as it is plugged in the back of the Melco that sits on a wall mounted shelf, I had to put the Melco too close to the shelf edge for my taste.
And anyway the Eitr sounds better. (or at leaqt used to sound better)

[frenchrooster]

Maybe @Filipe has tried other usb to spdif converters before buying the Audiophileo?

[Filipe]

I tried the HiFace M2 whatever that Innuos loaned to me. Choose the better one (Audiophilleo Plus PurePower) based on reviews. Not been disappointed!

I have ordered the Singxter SU6 and received it yesterday. The sound is more detailed that the one with the M2Tech Hiface. Apparently bits are not bits.

Sonore have a UltraDigital product and pair it with either an Uptone LPS 1.2 or Sonore own PSU.
