I assume the USB card was added later given USB 1.0 didn't appear until '96 and adoption was slow in the PC world.even when using PCs that are 30 years old!

Audio Alchemy, Camelot Technology and Sonic Frontiers, all now defunct, were the ones who move I2S into the intercomponent sphere. I wrote two DIY articles about it in AudioAmateur 3/1995 and 1/1997.
Right, 24 year...I assume the USB card was added later given USB 1.0 didn't appear until '96 and adoption was slow in the PC world.
I am not sure I understand. USB Audio is a specification how to pass audio data directly over USB port in a standardized way.There is no need to involve AMANERO or anyone else developing specific USB Audio interfaces, because from my point of view, they have no reason to exist. The philosophy behind using a PC, streamer, or Raspberry Pi is to provide to the DAC with a clean DATA file input, which is already inherently jitter-free, directly through a USB port or any port a PC uses to exchange data with peripherals.
Monitor cable from a '90s vintage Sun workstation.Anyone remember this:

Sure. It is as much an I2S connector as are HDMI and DIN.Monitor cable from a '90s vintage Sun workstation.
Maybe one sort of synchronized USB port with an integrated reclockI am not sure I understand. USB Audio is a specification how to pass audio data directly over USB port in a standardized way.
Please can you explain? I am afraid I do not understand your argument, comparing that to USB audio.Maybe one sort of synchronized USB port with an integrated reclock

Hello Mr. Rubinson,Sure. It is as much an I2S connector as are HDMI and DIN.
There is no easy way at this moment.Hello Mr. Rubinson,
I read your posts on Stereophile for multichannel audio and really appreciated your reviews of pro-gear. Not everybody can afford a Datasat AP 25 or Storm Elite, so pro-gear make a lot of sense .
It is possible to use a computer/workstation to deliver via an audio-card 16 to 32 channels of Atmos digital signals to active speakers wirh a digital input ( such a the new Neumann and Genelec) ? A Dolby Atmos license for the computer would be needed. Also, the Audio-cards would need a digital volume control ?
If not possible , then the the digital Atmos stream would be transferred to an interface ( Merging ,Audient etc..) that would have digital outputs with volume control.
What is the easiest and cheaper way to do this ?
René; Newbie to real audio ( but an old audiophile fool in a previous life).
What products are we talking about here?Marantz or Yamaha do not offer a digital path to their xlr,s outputs as the volume control is apparently already in the digital domain
I don't know why Marantz or Yamaha do not offer a digital path to their xlr,s outputs...
