RE: Streamer to Dac Connection

Well, I wonder which digital interconnects were originally designed to carry audio, rather than video or digital computer digits.

As far as I know, the one interconnect that meets this is AES/EBU aka AES3. This is the protocol used extensively in the professional audio industry and is always my first choice. Cable runs can be very long without signal deterioration and the spec of the cable means that it needn't be crazy priced.

USB belongs in PCs and coax and optical belong in run-of-the mill audio kit
