New Matrix X-SPDIF-3

Did anyone try the new SPDIF-3 with I2S?

Website says:

The new X-SPDIF3 USB digital audio interface allows your computer, tablet or mobile phone to easily output high-quality digital audio signal to peripheral digital audio devices, transmit in USB asynchronous mode, and achieve from USB input to Optical/Coaxial/AES/IIS-LVDS output interface conversion. Compared with the previous generation, the IIS-LVDS output isolation is added, which completely isolates the digital output from the ground wire of the USB end, and bids farewell to the annoying noise of the USB front end. In addition, it supports up to 32Bit/768kHz PCM signal and 1Bit/DSD512 signal output, achieving an excellent output quality from both PC and mobile devices.

I don’t have a need for the new version. I have two of the old version that I am currently not using. But I may buy one anyway as I want to experience it!

I now am using the Matrix-3 between a i5NUC/Roon and my OG DSDAC, and an older -2 between a Dell PC, for streaming jazz concerts, and the DSDAC. I shot out the two on Roon, and the new Matrix is noticably quieter in my system.

Bump.

Any others who have upgraded from the older model to the Matrix-3?
