After a long time of tireless work, my Gustard U12, a not astonishing but honest device, is suddenly dead
RIP!
So I'm looking for USB Interfaces with an AES3/EBU output (110 Ohm)
I've taken a look at Gustard U16, of course, but it's a far too new product and… both the design changes —from XMOS to ESS— and subsequent Firmware upgrades are suggesting me to stay away from it for a while.
I know, Berkeley Audio Alpha USB would be the right choice, but I should start a fundraising campaign to purchase it!
So… can anybody give me any suggestion below $400?
Thank you very much in advance.

PS that Gustard was part of a semi-professional setup ***24/96KHz only**** so I would prefer a device where all the money are spent in low distortion/jitter/noise and a stable clock. Support of DSD8, for example, is absolutely useless!
