USB Noise filter on R2R DAC ?


Seek advise and opinion if R2R DAC required USB noise filter , to filter /reduce USB noise from my headless NUC or music streamer ? 

I have read abd learnt that modern DAC may not require USB noise filter .

All suggestion is welcome.

  I’m not sure if this is any help, but I purchased the USB DISRUPTOR to try with my Schiit Yiggy DAC. I had ZERO improvement, but I really wasn’t  experiencing an issue before. I just wanted to try based on a friend having a major improvement with a different brand DAC. I had no long term use for it so I gave it to him. I would guess that it’s based on a particular DAC’s ability to filter as mentioned above. One point of note was that the company contacted all purchasers by email and requested comment on how it performed what DAC brand we had. So hopefully you can get input from someone with your exact DAC or the manufacturer. Also based on my experience contact the manufacturer of the brand you’re considering and see if they know or offer a trial period.  I’m trying to give input but it’s a little lame. Regards , Mike B.
