Yes it makes a nice upgrade IMO to your dac
even their newer 12 th the Hermes having better of everything
including dual oven controlled clocks and much better regulation and isolation is
worth the extra bucks but if you don’t have the $$. The Iris 12 is the best ddc I have heard under a grand ,much better then the old iris2 and for sure use I2S that is by far the best just use a good brand I2S cable ,yes they look like a hdmi cable
but ones made for audio have better dielectric and build quality .we have tried $100 hdmi , and a few brands I am not spending $600:on a I2S cable. AQ or Wireworld
