There are 3 really good USB to SPDIF converters that have had as much of a super positive SQ consensus as you could probably get....
The CMOS solutions of the F-1 boards, - now the Singxer SU-6 is also one of the most expensive... (Works best with Hi-Rez).

The Gustard U-16. (Best value, has trouble with Hi-Rez).
The "other" XMOS devices, - the Pro3z

Folks say the the Su-6 and the Gustard are not different in SQ on redbook level digital files.

Where people had paid to see inside,
For entertainment they watch his body twist
Behind his eyes he says, 'I still exist.'"
