Motherboard SDIF Output Or Soundcard

Bob, I checked out their website. Very handsome electronics. I like the case of the bit frost. The electronics look very nice. For some reason, Schiit reminds me of a hand made product built by one person, who eventually got big enough to hire people to build even more all while continuing the passion for using quality parts. That's the vibe I'm getting from their website. And with a name like that, it can only mean they aren't stuck up, which might mean products that are more accessible to anyone. 

I am intrigued by the bit frost multibit.. 

Yes, Joe, they are an interesting company. Though I don't understand their rationale for not providing information regarding the sound qualities of their different models. After all, if they are doing something between models there must be a reason-hopefully, something that relates to increased sound definition.
In any case, I own the Bifrost Multibit and the Modi Multibit, I am very happy with both. I really can't see how much better the more expensive models could be, but I wouldn't doubt it. 
Now if I can just find a used Yggy...

I agree that the Schiit products offer great return for investment. Can't help to think that the Bitfrost Multibit would prove to be an improvement over the V90. Especially for the playback of redbook CDs as uncompressed computer files.

I would recommend an USB Interface and a USB isolator.  I use a Schiit Wyrd ($99) to isolate the USB signal from a noisy computer port and then a Gustard U12 ($160) to convert to spdif.  The Gustard has dual TXCO to minimize jitter and it sounds fantastic.  

Audioman, do you notice a significant difference using the Wyrd?
