Re: Does USB 1 sound worse than USB 2 going to a USB to SPDIF converter?

There should be no difference in the way the music sounds. USB 1 was the initial version of the standard. USB 2 is the current version, with over 1B users worldwide. There are various technical differences in how much data each will carry, how fast the data is transmitted and how much power is carried. None of this afffects the audio since the capacity of USB1 already exceeds the requirments of music.

Put another way, nothing at all happens until the data reaches the SPDIF converter
