Make sure you use an actual repeater, as opposed to just an extender. Also make sure we’re talking USB 2.0 for that length.
Here is an example:

The repeater uses the USB power to increase the distance the signals can travel. At the end consider a USB isolator. Not always needed, but depending on the quality of isolation at the DAC end can be useful:

You could also build your own Linux based music streamer for $600 and use iPhone or Android phone apps to control it. Also has iTunes integration. This would let you put your music server next to your DAC.
Lastly of course is the PS Audio $600 unit, which does what your cable and isolator would do.

My least favorite for it's outrageous cost. Seriously, I can build a 2TB music server for that much!
