USB 2.0 does 96Hz?

USB will do 24/192. Just needs the right hardware and driver.

I never had any problems streaming 24/96Khz data to my Benchmark DAC1USB using the USB1.1 protocol. USB 2.0 is supposed to go up to 192KHz with the right drivers and hardware.

Thanks for the replies.

Me Bad - I forgot the "k" in "kHz". I must have subwoofers on my mind.

USB should do 24 bit at 96khz, but it is not very stable. You are much better off going to firewire, or use a pro card that has AES/EBU digital out to connect your DAC to.

Apogee and others have dropped their USB 24/96 converters due to issues with the signal.

Benchmark and Wavelength are both using USB at 24/96 with good success. In running high-rez flies into the Benchmark I have not had a a problem or instability ever.
