matthias Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 According to Macrumors the next generation ARM-based MacBook Pros will get ASMedia USB controllers: https://www.macrumors.com/2020/07/16/apple-silicon-macbook-pro-macbook-air-ship-2020/ These chipsets seem to be the best sounding ones and are used in UHQ servers like Taiko Extreme for example.

The JCAT USB XE can be powered externally. Matt "I want to know why the musicians are on stage, not where". (John Farlowe) Link to comment

This is primarily because I am also trying to get away from USB. So any cheaper external USB card with the chip + external power is what I am keen in n. You can try a Sonnet Echo Express SEL Thunderbolt 3 small desktop expansion chassis with a Sonnet USB Card (ASM3142) and power this with an external LPS.
