So long as your TV can provide USB power presumably.
Mine has a 5v DC plug

Tv's have crappy optical outs with lots of jitter across a high bandwidth. No need to spend much but make sure you get one that can accommodate the quality of a tv's optical out, not all can.
£100 worth of Topping should suffice.
Hello
Having sold my house and currently in rented awaiting new house to be built, I have a question about dacs.
I will need to have it between my TV and pre amp. So the dac will need an optical in and an analogue rca out.
I have no idea about dacs, as my roksan Caspian cd player has it built-in. My system for context is Allegri + pre, EWA A40 power, Shahinian Compasses and a Simplex turntable with XX2 mk2.
So, which would be the most suitable dac and how much should I look to spend? Budget ideally upto £500, but can be more if needed. I assume probably not a good idea to buy second hand?
