USB Dac to connect a TV and 2 PCs to active speakers

[chrisr34000]

Hello everybody!

I need an external USB Dac to connect the following sources:

- LG Plasma TV (Audio optical OUT)

- my primary PC

-maybe another PC (onboard soundcard with digital output)

to a set of Adam F7 speakers via XLR.

So, I need a good DAC with optical and TRS inputs and XLR outputs. What would be a low budget solution for my needs?

Also, if I connect 3 sources to the DAC (2 PCs and one TV), how can I choose which signal should be sent to the speakers?

Thanks for your time,

Chris

Not that I know that many DACs, but my impression is that high levels of connectivity and XLR output isn't that common in a budget offering, but hopefully someone else will come along with a better knowledge of products on the DAC market.

If I would lower my requirements and I could do without XLR and would go with Cinch instead, what would you recommend?
