Seeking Streamer & Dac that has 12s outputs and inputs


In my quest to upgrade my Dac and streamer, I was looking at 12s compatible equipment which is said to provide the best sound available. I need a transport and streamer that have 12s outputs and a Dac that has 12s inputs. The issue seems to be that there is no standard established for the 12s architecture, as well as limited availability of same.   Are the manufacturers actively adding 12s inputs & outputs to their equipment? In 12S outputs I see the Jay's Audio having 12s. I currently own a Lumin U2 mini and if I wanted to upgrade with another Lumin streamer, I do not believe Lumin offers a streamer with 12S. As far as 12S inputs not many dacs provide 12S.  I believe that what I am seeking is very hard to find. My alternative is to just buy equipment that is fully balanced. My rationale being that fully balanced provide better sound that RCA connections.   Any thoughts would be appreciated. If I am wrong about any of my assumptions I would be happy to be corrected. Thank you.

PS Audio invented i2s over HDMI cable. Almost all others use the same pin assignment and some devices allow you to change it for compatibility if need be.

A streamer with I2s is difficult to find, so I use USB from my Innuos streamer to a Gustard U18 DDC which sends the signal through I2s to the Gustard A26 dac. The beauty of the U18 is it has multiple I2s configurations options on the front panel, so you are pretty much set for any I2s configuration your dac may have.

It’s not that difficult, as PS Audio has the Airlens with I2S out.  Their DAC has I2S input, so that combo should work, and sound great!
