@sfseasy You're mixing things... The raspberry pi has more than enough CPU power to send bits to a DAC. That's what i use to play through my DAC. The sound quality comes from the DAC and the DAC is using asynchronous USB so "timing" has no meaning here...
The industry is even trying to sell "Digital IEC" powercords... what a complete rip off... Same for the supposedly "better USB cables", plain stupidity...
