Topic: ADI-2 DAC FS an MacBook Air 2020

Hello everybody

Just ordered a new MacBook Air 2020 and suddenly discovered, that the MacBook has only two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C plugs.

My ADI-2 DAC FS has "only" a USB 2.0 Type B plug.

So, how do I connect? After research on Google I only found a OWC 14 Port Thunderbolt 3 Dock. Price tag is 300 Euros on Amazon.

The right solution or something else and maybe cheaper?

Thanks so much for your help

Nice day, Lambert

No no no,

you only need a simple and cheap USB-C to USB-B cable, or adapter. Only if you want to connect other things at the same time you need a breakout dongle with multiple ports, or a fully fledged dock.
