optical and co ax convertor to usb

[wee tee cee]

I have usb dacs on my TQ claymore amps and was wonder if there is a optical and co-ax to usb convertor. I have a musical fidelity v link that does this the other way around conversion wise.

Im using the co ax to a lap top but wondered if I could use the co-ax out of my blu ray player and the optical out of my telly feeding a stan dac then into the TQ via phono leads.

It aint too shabby just wondered if I Can utilise the TQ DAC which is something special.

I'd be surprised if anything other than a computer works with the amp over USB.

v link works in reverse surely a solution in reverse is available?:

The computer is in control of the V-Link - it is not an autonomous device.

Thanks gents. The Dac Colin Wonfor incorporated in the TQ Claymore is the best I have ever came across sonically.

The caiman 2 does telly and blu ray duties well, just trying to utilise what I had cutting out the middle man!!

Worked fine with iPad to USB Dac on the TQ when I had it, just using the standard lightning to USB charging lead.

Mike thanks. That is exactly what I have been doing with both my TQC for music. Brian is building me two of his fantastic usb cables for transfer from the lap tops.

Stratmangler you are a helpful as a hand brake on a canoe!!!!

Not much call for this way around. Now USB Audio outperforms SPDIF it must be seen as an unnecessary conversion direction.
Most DACs which have a USB in will almost certainly also have SPDIF in too, I say most, obviously yours doesn't.

You may have to look at the Pro world for this.
