if I was spending $200 to see sample rates I would get something like an apogee big ben. Sure the display is not as nice as the topping and its a full form factor, but you get helpful reclocking and can see the sample rates.

Ancient clunker that is not applicable to async USB.... - AbeCollins 11:53:27 11/07/23 (1)
If you follow this thread you will realize that we are talking about displaying sample rate over USB.

Apogee Big Ben is a 20 year old product that doesn't have a USB interface. It solved some studio clocking issues that existed decades ago but it's not applicable to modern USB Audio Class 2 DACs that operate in asynchronous transfer mode..... which nearly all modern USB DACs do.
