I am planning out a new car audio system and learning a ton as I did not know how complicated it could get. I have always just had factory systems. I am hoping to output an audio signal via my Samsung S9 Ultra tablet to an Audo Arc Blackbird DSP Amp. Basically, forgo a head unit altogether. The DSP amp has an SPDIF input. My question is is there a recommended USB-C to SPDIF cable to use? I saw this converter on Amazon, but not clear if I need something more robust.

I'd expect that converter to work... It says it doesn't need drivers so that means it's class compliant and it uses the drivers supplied with the operating system. ...As long as a regular USB soundcard works with the tablet, that thing should work.
I don't really trust stuff from unknown Amazon suppliers/manufacturers (or eBay or AliExpress, etc.) but personally, I'd take the $20 gamble.
