"So, with that said, S/PDIF is better, but I doubt you'll notice enough difference. A good DAC/Amp design will make far more difference than debating between S/PDIF vs. USB." from an Electrical Engineer friend of the poster.

Fantastic, that's two of us then. I would only really worry about using USB if I was trailing it across a room. If you are going to run short distances, and there's a USB DAC you like, as you state USB cables are cheaper.

(But I would still opt for toslink over distance or coax over short if possible)ÿ
