Now all of the sudden the USB over audio "Greatly" (as you say) improve the sound quality. On his site he make it sound that the USB cable is picking up interference and so decided to use the "3.5mm audio jack" to avoid interference. Im not so sure if I can make any sense out of it.

The new board is NOT over USB. I never said it was...

Oh sorry my mistake then, I though the board would be similiar spec to nrg. So when are you selling the audio over USB? soon? or maybe not too soon.

At least not for another 6 months. We strongly think the 3.5mm version provides much better quality.

Less noise of what kind and in what environments?

There's nothing added on the audio side that will deal with ground loop noise, from what I can see.

I think direct connection is better. I think the usual ADC found in most sound card is pretty good anyway.

The only advantage of the USB audio is the convinient of only having to use a single USB cable. If the price is decent people would go for it.

Well in my car, I can hardly hear any ground loop noise any more. It depends on each environment - I can't say specifically what those will be.

fyi, signal level of the 2.0 board is higher, there is a gain of 1.5v/v
there is also no dc blocking capacitors on output for better frequency response
also there is now a hardware audio mute
